Enter the total weight (kg) and the cost per unit weight ($/kg) into the EP Cost Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the EP Cost. ## EP Cost Formula The following formula is used to calculate the EP Cost. EPC = W * CPW • Where EPC is the EP Cost ($)
• W is the total weight (kg)
• CPW is the cost per unit weight ($/kg) To calculate the EP cost, multiply the total weight by the cost per unit weight. ## How to Calculate EP Cost? The following example problems outline how to calculate EP Cost. Example Problem #1: 1. First, determine the total weight (kg). The total weight (kg) is given as 2.5. 2. Next, determine the cost per unit weight ($/kg). The cost per unit weight ($/kg) is provided as 5.00. 3. Finally, calculate the EP Cost using the equation above: EPC = W * CPW The values given above are inserted into the equation below: EPC = 2.5 * 5 = 7.50 ($)

Example Problem #2:

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total weight (kg) = 6.00

cost per unit weight ($/kg) = 8.00 Entering these values and solving gives: EPC = W * CPW = 48.00 ($)
