#1 Mark-Up

If you have a beautiful knit sweater that costs $30 USD Landed Duty Paid, what would be the wholesale price and retail price using a mark-up of x2? What would be the gross margin for the brand (wholesale to LDP) versus the gross margin for a retailer (retail to wholesale)? What if the brand sold the sweater on their website, would be the gross margin? And what operational costs might a brand or retailer need to be aware of in determining their net margin?

#2 Determining Cost

Now, choose a luxury item that you’ve been wanting for a long time (it could be a Gucci bag or a new pair of Balenciaga sneakers). Using 4x, what would likely be the wholesale price? and what would likely be the LDP?
