Materials Amount
1 yard cotton Fabric Php 38.00
Sewing thread 10.00
Utilities 28.00
Cost of labor (45%) of the cost of materials 21.60
Total cost 97.60
Add Profit (20%) 19.52
Total selling price Php 117.12
or Php 117.00
 EXAMPLE OF COMPUTATION:

Product: CURTAIN

Capital 1,100.00
No. of Item 8 pairs

Price/Item Given 250.00/pair

Sales 250.00 x 8 pairs 2,000.00

Profit 2,000.00 – 1,100.00 900.00

EXAMPLE OF COMPUTATION:

COST/CAPITAL 100.00 COST 100.00

Linen cloth MARK UP RATE x 20%
Embroidery Thread MARK UP/PROFIT 20.00
Needle
Mark up rate 20% COST 100.00
Mark up/Profit ? MARK-UP + 20.00

3. 3,500.00 X 10%
4. 4,300.00 X 12%
5. 3,000.00 X 20%
