Scott Thanks a Bunch!  I just solved my question below with your help. 
I added 3 actions.  

-100% of List
100% Average Cost
Percent of Margin

...and it worked perfectly.

Final questions. 
1. Is there away that the system can default all users to List Price
instead of Default Price?
2. Is there a way to have a percent of Wholesale price list?

That sounds awesome! So how does two actions work with each other.

How would you configure the following using multiple actions!

Avg Cost + Percent of Margin 

Thanks Scott!!
