Calculate the suggested selling price for a product that costs $50, with a 20% tax rate, 15% expense rate, and a 10% target profit margin.

For a product cost of $50.00, the suggested selling price is $76.92. This calculation uses a markup divisor of 0.65, accounting for a total percentage burden of 45%.

Compare how a 10% tax rate vs a 25% tax rate affects the selling price of an item costing $100 with a 15% profit margin and 10% expenses.

With a 10% tax rate, the suggested price is $133.33. With a 25% tax rate, the suggested price increases to $166.67. Both scenarios maintain your 15% profit margin and 10% expense rate.

Show me some common tax and expense scenarios I can use.

Here are the available predefined scenarios: VAT_STANDARD (20% tax), VAT_REDUCED (5% tax), and US_SALES_TAX_ESTIMATE (8% tax).

The `calculate_markup` tool calculates a divisor by subtracting your tax rate, expense rate, and target profit margin from 100%. It then divides your product cost by this divisor to suggest a selling price that covers all obligations.
