agent must sell the house at 186094
September 23rd, 2009 - 11:09
x = 155965 (purchase price)
x1 = 15% profit ( x + (x* 0.15)) = 179359.75
Agents commission 5.6% of sell price.
Therefore, Selling price y = (y *0.056) + x1
0.994 y = x1
y = 189999.7352
Selling value = 189999.7352
Agent’s comission (5.6%) from sell value = 10639.98517
Profit of 15% on purchase price (23394.75)
