How to calculate the total cost of check printing?

The total cost of printing checks can be calculated using the following formula:

Total Cost (T) is given by:

§§ T = (C \times N) + A §§

where:

  • § T § — total cost
  • § C § — cost per check
  • § N § — number of checks
  • § A § — additional fees (if any)

This formula allows you to calculate the total expense incurred when printing a specified number of checks, taking into account both the individual cost of each check and any extra charges that may apply.

Example:

  • Number of Checks (§ N §): 10
  • Cost per Check (§ C §): $1.50
  • Additional Fees (§ A §): $5.00

Total Cost:

§§ T = (1.50 \times 10) + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20 \text{ dollars} §§
