Lu tabuli ini machem delegate di Mesia. Lu kena kasi arahan terang-terang. Lu mesti bagi tau itu harga bahagi, darab, campur, tolak berapa. Itu peratus, markup, pebenda jangan pakai, orang senang konpius.

I was asked to check on a store - found out that prices are labelled wrongly
I said markup change from 50% to 20% to clear stock
Then he just deduct 30% from the price - walao eh got people so stupid? NO ONE IN THE ENTIRE SHOP 7-8 PEOPLE REALISE !!)
Then I had to explain to him divide the price by 1.5 and multiply by 1.2 - everyone like dumb founded and ask why ah why ah why??  bangwall.gif  bangwall.gif  bangwall.gif

Is this too hard or are they stupid?

i don't see any wrong with TS.
as ppl already give an example.

Eg:
cost=1k
markup 50% = 1.5k
markup 20% = 1.2k

so obviously cost price + 20% = selling price which is 1.2k

why the hell the staff go and deduct 30% from 1.5k. TS already mention "change from 50% to 20% to clear stock". TS didn't say deduct 30% from 1.5k. Why the staff pandai pandai go and deduct. And the staff should clarify with TS or manager for the new price. Imagine if buyers start buying the product and the price different, who will bear the prices differences and it will have huge impact in terms of revenue, profit and gross margin.

the staff thinks 1+1*2 = 4 thumbsup.gif

Current price = 150% mark-up
NEW price = 120% reduced markup (30% less markup than previous)

Find "New price".

[Current price X (120/100)] / (150/100) = "New price"

well, i am not saying TS is right or wrong. to me, markup is simple english. maybe to them markup is something they don't know.
However, if the staff don't understand, they should ask and not keep quiet.
