Need Help Understanding Commission When Selling Jewelry in Retail Boutique

Need Help Understanding Commission When Selling Jewelry in Retail Boutique  - Discussion on Jewelry Making Journal

The boutique owner asked if I double what it costs me to make my merchandise (actually I do x3) and I said yes.

So she wants to keep 10-20% commission on what it costs me to make it.

If I’m selling a necklace for $30 and it cost me $15 to make(actually $10), at 20%, she’d get $3.

Confusing, yes?

I want to cover myself. I actually mark up x 3 + hourly rate.

Thank you.
