    Desired profit is $36

    Target cost is $324

    Explanation:

    the desired profit is 10% of the target sales price of $360, the desired profit computation is shown below:

    Target price $360

    Target profit ($360*10%) $36

    Target cost ($360-$36) $324

    Target cost is the target competitive market price less desired target profit.

    Targeting is used in such a way that the price charged is related to what the consumers are willing to pay not what the manufacturer thinks they should payment, hence it is a reflection of current market conditions and realities
