Let first find the purchase price (cost) of 2 pair of pants, 3 dress shirts, and 1 suit jacket.
2 pants = [tex]74*2=148[/tex]
3 dress shirts = [tex]48*3=144[/tex]
1 suit jacket = [tex]325*1=325[/tex]
Summing all these, we have [tex]148+144+325=617[/tex]
Harold marks up 27% of his cost. So we add 27% of 617 to 617.
[tex]617+(0.27)(617)=783.59[/tex]
Hence, Harold charges $783.59 to his customer who will buy 2 pants, 3 shirts, and 1 suit jacket.
ANSWER: $783.59
