A computer company gives a discount of 10% on a new piece of software.  If it makes a profit of 4%, what percent does the marked price exceed the cost price?

bet we can do this with numbers. supposed the marked price is $100 then after a 10% discount it is $90.  they make a 4% profit, so the cost would be 
$$90\div 1.04=\$86.54$$ rounded so marked price exceeds cost price by $13.56 
$$13.46\div 90= 15\% $$ rounded 
now let me try to do it for real
