Web Application Chapter 7 page 276

Randell is ready to purchase a telephone for his office. He is told that Costco's on-line shop is having a sale on all telephones. Never having used the Internet to order anything before, Randell was concerned that it would be difficult. However, he typed in the URL www.costco.com and discovered how easy it was to find telephones for sale. By simply scrolling down to "telephone" and clicking, he found the page that listed all the products he had an interest in. Randell decided on a Teleconferencing Speakerphone, the Polycom SoundStation

1. By following the steps Randell took, find the current selling price of the Polycom SoundStation.

2. If the sale price is $279.99, what are the amounts of the markdown and the markdown percent? Use the rate formula found in Chapter 3 of your textbook to solve this problem, P = B X R. In this case, the original selling price is the base. The part is the difference between the original selling price and the sale price.
