M. Studios buys cameras for $750, less 10%, plus an additional volume discount of 8% on orders of 200 or more. The list price of the cameras is based on operating expenses of 20% of cost and a desired profit of 15% of cost. The store manager has 10 cameras remaining from an order of 250, and has decided to sell them at the breakeven price. What will be the rate of markdown?
Volume Discount
A price reduction applied to a purchase based on the quantity of items bought, encouraging larger orders.

The market price at which the total costs of production equal the revenue derived from selling a product, resulting in neither profit nor loss.
