Answer:

2703 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the markup

Markup = selling price – cost

Markup = 59.99 -2.14

Markup = $57.85

===============

Step 2. Calculate the percent markup

% Markup = markup/cost × 100 %

% Markup = 57.85/2.14 × 100

% Markup = 27.03 × 100

% Markup = 2703 %

The markup is 2703 %.
