Net cost = $504,       Series discount:  10/20/30,         List price = ?

 

Net cost equivalent = 0.9*0.8*0.7 = 0.504    

 

List price = Net cost / Net cost equivalent

 

List price = 504/0.504 = 1000

 

              = $1000

Hi Civonamzuk,

I did not understand what that question meant but your interpretation looks really good.

 

I'd just like to expand a little.

50.4% of X = $504.00

 

So divide both sides by 50.4% to get X. (The original price)
