Calculating Markup and Selling Price

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the selling price of a product when the markup percentage is given. It provides two examples: one with a 20% markup on a product costing 800 units and another with a 25% markup on a product costing 40 units. The process involves calculating the markup amount by dividing the percentage by 100 and multiplying by the cost price, then adding the markup to the cost price to find the selling price. The video concludes with a call to action to subscribe to the channel.
