Margin=SalePrice-CostPrice/SalePrice
SalePrice-CostPrice/SalePrice=Margin
SalePrice-CostPrice=Margin*SalePrice
SalePrice-CostPrice-Margin*SalePrice=0
SalePrice-Margin*SalePrice=Cost Price
(-Margin+1)*SalePrice=Cost Price
SalePrice=CostPrice/-Margin+1

Sorry, don't know why the original post formate was wrong!  Hope the above makes sense couldn't figure out how to post an image.
