Tut now...

1) Denry pays for all goods at cost - 15%
2) His club members buy goods at cost
3) Denry makes the 15% difference as profit (minus any interest he pays on the capital loan from the bank).

Example:
- someone buys a table for 100 pounds. Denry pays the storekeeper 85 pounds for it. He makes 15 pounds.


Hope this helps...
