Using the keys in the CST, SEL, and MAR columns, any
one of these figures can be calculated when the other two
are known.

The following points should be noted while working cost-
sell-margin problems:

¦ 

The column of keys you use is determined by the type
of calculation you want to make.

¦ 

Within each column, two keys identify the data
required for that calculation.

¦ 

Data for the top key must be entered prior to data for
the lower key.

¦ 

The results are displayed after the last entry has been
made.

¦ 

An error message is displayed if the data is entered out
of sequence or entered using keys from different
columns.
