Answer:

The answer is: The selling price is $76.05

Explanation:

To calculate the markup we can use the following formula:

Markup Percentage = Gross Profit / Unit Cost

where:

  • unit cost = $45
  • markup percentage = 69%
  • gross profit = selling price - unit cost

69% = gross profit / $45

69% x $45 = gross profit

$31.05 = gross profit

$31.05 = selling price - $45

selling price = $76.05
