    1) Desired profit = Invested asset * Rate of return = $700,000*25% = $175,000

    2) x - selling price of the product

    60,000x - 784,600 = 175,000

    60,000x = $959,600

    x = $16

    Total product cost = Total fixed cost + Total variable cost = (38,700+7500) +

    ((4.60+1.88+1.33+4.50) * 60,000) = 46,200 + 12.31*60,000 = 46,200+738,600 = $784,800

    3)

    Mark-up percentage = Desired profit/Total product cost = $175,000/$784,800 = 0.2229 = 22.29%
