Cost per Pinata Calculator
Explanation
How to calculate the total cost of pinatas?
The total cost can be calculated using the following formula:
Total Cost (TC) is given by:
§§ TC = (PC \times Q) + AC §§
where:
- § TC § — total cost
- § PC § — cost of a single pinata
- § Q § — number of pinatas
- § AC § — additional costs (e.g., shipping, taxes)
This formula allows you to calculate how much you will spend in total when purchasing a specified number of pinatas, taking into account any extra expenses.
Example:
Cost of a single pinata (§ PC §): $10
Number of pinatas (§ Q §): 5
Additional costs (§ AC §): $15
Total Cost:
§§ TC = (10 \times 5) + 15 = 65 §$
