To perform Cost-Sell-Margin calculations:
If you know two of the following three values: 1) the cost of an item, 2) the selling
price of the item, and 3) the margin of profit, you can determine the value of the
third.
Note: Sell values must be greater than zero. Cost values must be greater than or
equal to zero. Margin values must be less than or equal to one hundred. Cost
values can be equal to zero if and only if the Margin value is equal to one hundred.
