Marshall bought 20 refills for a total cost of 50, which means each refill cost him 2.50. If he sold them for 4 each, his total revenue from selling all 20 refills is 80 (20 refills x 4). His profit is calculated as revenue minus cost, which is 80 - 50 = 30. To find the profit percent, divide the profit by the cost and multiply by 100: (30 / 50) x 100 = 60%. Thus, Marshall made a profit of 60%.

The question isn't quite clear therefore there are two answers depending on the interpretation of the question. # Assuming a customer bought the bag for 40 and the company earned a 15% profit, then the profit would be 40 x 15% = 6 # Assuming the company bought the bag for 40 and then sold it on for 15% profit, then the selling price would be 40/(100% - 15%) = 47.06 giving a profit of 7.06
