can someone please put this into clearer terms for me, its an i.t project that is super important!
------------------
The proprietors of the Golden Tiger Herbal Emporium, Jock and Agnes McGregor, are looking for a new solution to help them develop a pricing structure for their range of medicinal herbal products. They currently apply a flat rate of markup which evens out the sales tax that applies to some product lines based on the country of origin. They want to develop a pricing structure that will allow for the correct rate of sales tax to be included for each item and an appropriate level of markup to be applied to each item so that they can maintain a pricing structure that will be competitive with opposition companies.
A lookup table will be needed which determines which level of markup will need to be applied to each product. This is a scheme that is based on the cost of the product. The sales tax that is to be applied is based on a figure of 22% for products sourced from outside Australia and 13% for those sourced from within Australia. This amount should be determined through the use of an IF statement. The sales tax is calculated on the cost of the product but is added on after the markup has been added. The result of these calculations needs to be rounded off to the nearest ten cents through use of the ROUND function.
These prices need to be shown on a second worksheet and printed out as a price list for customers. This price list needs to be formatted with care and to include an address, phone number, fax number and email for the company.
The data for this price list is:
CodeProduct DescriptionCost ($)Origin
RG1003Red Ginseng - Tablets9.62Korea
