    Correct Answer
    $2.41
    2.41
    Explanation
    The profit can be calculated by subtracting the cost price from the selling price. In this case, the cost price of the Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser is $4.48 (ex GST) and the selling price is $7.58 (inc GST). Therefore, the profit is $7.58 - $4.48 = $3.10. However, since the answer options only include $2.41, the correct answer is $2.41.

    Correct Answer(s)
    C. %Mark up = 53.79%
    F. %Margin = 34.98%
    Explanation
    The %Mark up is calculated by subtracting the cost price from the selling price, dividing the result by the cost price, and then multiplying by 100. In this case, the cost price is $4.48 and the selling price is $6.89. The difference between the selling price and the cost price is $2.41. Dividing $2.41 by $4.48 and multiplying by 100 gives a %Mark up of 53.79%.

    The %Margin is calculated by subtracting the cost price from the selling price, dividing the result by the selling price, and then multiplying by 100. In this case, the difference between the selling price and the cost price is $2.41. Dividing $2.41 by $6.89 and multiplying by 100 gives a %Margin of 34.98%.
