Suppose you want to see if a certain set of sales prices makes sense for a store.

The items originally cost $5, so you don't want to accept the sale if the sales price is less for any of them, but you do want to know what the new price is otherwise.

Calculating one price is easy: you calculate the sales price, and return Nothing if you don't get a profit:

calculateOne :: Double -> Double -> Maybe Double
calculateOne price percent = let newPrice = price*(percent/100)
                             in if newPrice < 5 then Nothing else Just newPrice

To calculate it for the entire sale, zipWithM makes it really simple:

calculateAllPrices :: [Double] -> [Double] -> Maybe [Double]
calculateAllPrices prices percents = zipWithM calculateOne prices percents

This will return Nothing if any of the sales prices are below $5.
