How to calculate the cost per bottle of sparkling juice?

The cost per bottle can be calculated using the following formula:

Cost per Bottle (C) is given by:

§§ C = \frac{(T + (T \times \frac{tax}{100})) + ((T + (T \times \frac{tax}{100})) \times \frac{markup}{100})}{N} §§

where:

  • § C § — cost per bottle
  • § T § — total cost of the sparkling juice
  • § tax § — tax percentage applied to the total cost
  • § markup § — markup percentage applied after tax
  • § N § — number of bottles

This formula allows you to determine how much each bottle of sparkling juice costs after accounting for taxes and any additional markup.

Example:

Total Cost (§ T §): $100

Number of Bottles (§ N §): 10

Tax (§ tax §): 5%

Markup (§ markup §): 10%

Cost per Bottle Calculation:

  1. Calculate the total cost with tax:

    • Total with Tax = $100 + ($100 \times \frac{5}{100}) = $105

  2. Calculate the final cost with markup:

    • Final Cost = $105 + ($105 \times \frac{10}{100}) = $115.5

  3. Calculate the cost per bottle:

    • Cost per Bottle = \frac{115.5}{10} = $11.55
