If mark-up is at 55%, the selling price will be the cost price plus markp
=$14.50 +( 55% of $14.50)
=$14.50 +(55/100 x $14.50)
=$14.50 + $7.975

Wholesalers sell to retailers who put a 45% mark-up for consumers. The retailer's price is equivalent to 100%
Consumers price will be 45% more than retailers, which is 145%
consumers will be 145% of $68.94
