Bella,
I can promise you that there will be hardly any calculation-type questions. Any calculations on the exam can be done IN YOUR HEAD.
Eg,
A wholesaler buys a product for $100 and sells it for $150. What is his mark-up percentage?
A) 100%
B) 25%
C) 150%
D) 50%
So don't worry at all about calculations! Learn the terminology, terminology, terminology!
Hope this helps,

I agree completely. Terminology is everything in this one, and InstantCert is more than enough to learn it.
