Annual gross mark-up

Question

Hi there,

Isn't the answer for the second part of Q1 different as the question asked for gross mark-up instead of profit margin? The answer given is annual profit margin of 28.6% and was wondering if I missed something.

If it is indeed different, may I know what would your answer be? Thanks! :)
