    The selling price for a desired mark-up percentage is:

    \text{Selling Price} = \text{Total Cost }(1 + \text{Mark-Up Percent})

    The desired mark-up percentage is as follows:

    \text{Mark-Up Percent} = \frac{(\text{Selling Price} - \text{Total Cost})}{\text{Total Cost}}

    If you need any other formulas, I'll be glad to oblige.
