Default Re: Excel functions??

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks in advance
Uhhhmm ... let me give this a stab. Not a trick question, right?

I assume your spreadsheet has a column with the wholesale princes in it. If so, insert a new column beside it or use an empty one off to the far right.

Using this new column, you need to add a formula that adds 20% to each figure. I think a formula like this could work:

=A1*1.2 (where A1 is the cell with your wholesale price and 1.2 is your mark-up)

This formula can then be copied to all your products.

Try that and let us know if there's more to your question than this.

Best,

James @ DVDsPlusMore
