Kohl\'s Skills Test--spring \'12

The Mark Up $ for this transaction is $20. This can be calculated by subtracting the cost ($30) from the retail price ($50), which gives us a difference of $20. Therefore, the Mark Up $ is $20.

The answer is 15%. This can be calculated by dividing the number of glasses of lemonade sold on Monday (300) by the total number of glasses of lemonade sold in a week (300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 = 2100). Then, multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage. Therefore, (300/2100) * 100 = 14.2857%, which can be rounded to 15%.

The total for BOH is given as 56,700, 56700, $56,700, and $56700. These are all different representations of the same amount, which is $56,700.

The total for REC is 10,800 or 10800 or $10,800 or $10800.

The correct answer is 11%. The formula provided is used to calculate the sell-thru percent, which is the ratio of sales to the sum of the ending on-hand inventory (EOH) and sales. In this case, the sell-thru percent for the Green Dress can be calculated by dividing the sales of the Green Dress by the sum of the ending on-hand inventory and sales for the Green Dress, and then multiplying by 100 to convert it to a percentage.

The correct answer is 17%. This is because the question is asking for the ST% (sales tax percentage) for the Blue Dress. The options provided include 17%, .17, 18%, .18, and 17. Since the sales tax percentage is usually expressed as a whole number, the options .17 and .18 can be disregarded. The only remaining option that represents a whole number percentage is 17%, which is the correct answer.

The correct answer is 10%. This is because all the given options are equivalent representations of the same percentage. 10% is the same as .10, 10, .11, and 11 when rounded to the nearest percent.

The answer options provided are all different ways to express a percentage. The correct answer is 9% because it is the only option that is a percentage. The other options are either whole numbers or decimal numbers.

The sales trend to LY can be calculated using the formula: % CHANGE LY = (TY SALES - LY SALES) / LY SALES. Substituting the given values, we get % CHANGE LY = ($15,500 - $13,500) / $13,500 = $2,000 / $13,500 = 0.1481. Rounding to the nearest percent, the sales trend to LY is 15%.

The given sequence is a Fibonacci sequence, where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. Starting with 1 and 1, the next number is 2, then 3, and so on. Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be 34. The additional "-34" is not a part of the Fibonacci sequence and is likely a distractor.

The correct answer is 46%. The mark-up percentage is calculated by subtracting the cost price from the selling price, dividing the result by the cost price, and then multiplying by 100. In this case, if Stephanie paid $55 for the sweater, the mark-up percentage would be (55 - 46) / 46 * 100 = 9 / 46 * 100 = 19.57%. Rounding to the nearest percent gives us 20%, which is not one of the options provided. Therefore, the closest option is 46%, which is the correct answer.

The cost at which Kohl's would need to purchase the sweater in order to sell it for $50 with a 48% mark-up is $26. This means that the original cost of the sweater was $26, and Kohl's added a 48% mark-up to reach the selling price of $50.

The turnover can be calculated by dividing the sales by the average inventory. In this case, the sales are 122,000 and the average inventory is 49,000. Dividing 122,000 by 49,000 gives a turnover of approximately 2.49.

The given options represent different formats to express a sales trend as a percentage. The correct answer is 19%, as it is the most commonly used format to represent percentages. The other options (.19, .20, 19, and 20%) are either in decimal or mixed format, which may not be as commonly used or may not accurately represent the sales trend.

The given sequence follows a pattern of subtracting 20 from the previous number, then adding 9, and then subtracting 18 repeatedly. Starting with 10, we subtract 20 to get -10, then add 9 to get -29, then subtract 18 to get -47, and so on. Following this pattern, the next number would be obtained by subtracting 20 from -80, resulting in -100, and then adding 9 to get -91. Finally, subtracting 18 from -91 gives us the missing number, which is -109. Therefore, the correct answer is -95.

The pattern in the given sequence is that the first number increases by 1, the second number decreases by 1, and this pattern alternates. Therefore, the missing number should be 7, which is obtained by increasing the previous number by 1. The next number, 3, is obtained by decreasing the previous number by 1.

The turnover is calculated by dividing the sales by the average inventory. In this case, the sales are $75,000 and the average inventory is $20,000. Dividing $75,000 by $20,000 gives us a turnover of 3.75.

The pattern in the sequence is that each number is obtained by adding the previous number with an incrementing odd number. Starting with 2, the next number is obtained by adding 3 (odd number) to 2, resulting in 5. Then, 5 + 5 (odd number) equals 10. Continuing this pattern, the missing number can be found by adding 7 (odd number) to 10, resulting in 17. Therefore, the missing number is 17. The given answer of 26 does not fit the pattern and is incorrect.

The pattern in the given sequence is that each number is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 1, then subtracting 1, and finally multiplying by 2. Starting with 2, the sequence follows this pattern: (2*1)-1 = 1, (1*2)-1 = 1, (1*2)-1 = 1, (1*2)-1 = 1, (1*2)-1 = 1, (1*2)-1 = 1, (1*2)-1 = 1. Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be (1*2)-1 = 1, and the number after that would be (1*2)-1 = 1. So, the missing numbers are 172 and -172.

The answer should be "Sales are trending down 8.8% but exceeding plan by 6.9%". This is because the TY Sales ($15,500) are lower than the LY Sales ($17,000), indicating a decrease in sales. However, the TY Sales are higher than the PL Sales ($14,500), meaning that sales are exceeding the planned target. Therefore, the answer accurately reflects both the decrease in sales and the fact that they are still performing better than expected.

To increase the turnover rate (TO) to a rate of 2.0, the buyer for Department B can accomplish this by increasing sales and decreasing the average inventory. Increasing sales means selling more products, which will generate more revenue and contribute to a higher turnover rate. On the other hand, decreasing the average inventory means having less inventory on hand, which indicates that products are selling quickly and efficiently. This combination of increasing sales and decreasing average inventory will result in a higher turnover rate of 2.0.

The Dress Buyer is planning to sell 7,080 dresses.

Lowering the price of the yellow dress can help increase sales because customers are more likely to purchase a product when it is priced lower. This can attract more customers and lead to an increase in the sales of the yellow dress.

Canceling receipts in order to lower inventory can also help increase the Yellow Dress ST% because it reduces the amount of inventory available. By canceling receipts, the Dress Buyer can create a sense of scarcity and urgency among customers, leading to increased demand and potentially higher sales for the yellow dress.
