Default Calculate the percentage from the cost and recommended sell price

Hi,
In Excel example. The cost price is 20.00 and the recommended sell price is
30.00. What is the formulae to calculate the percentage markup of the
recomended sell price?

A1= 20
B1=30
=(B1-A1)/A1 normal markup as percentage of cost price
or =(B1-A1)/B1 markup as percentage of retail price
formatted as percentage
