Target the 30th date of one month. what date is the week before and the week after. My calculation is 16th or 23rd (before) and 6th or 13th. 119.30.38.208 (talk) 16:36, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You can analytically continue each month in terms of the next and previous months. In case of August you define the 32nd of August to be the 1st of September and in general x August = (x - 31) September and similarly for other month. Count Iblis (talk) 16:43, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Product price mark-up[edit]

A product cost £10 to buy. It consist of the all the investments implemented before customer received at hand after purchase.

The tax percentage is, say for example 20%.

1) Do you tax 20% of the £10, or do you exclude the investment (say £5) and then tax the profit sum?
