PRACTICAL PLANNING
Make the assumptions visible.
Convert platinum quantities and compare two cost scenarios. All prices and rates are your inputs; sample values are illustrative.
Formula and interpretation
Fine grams = gross grams × purity / 100. Recovered fine grams = fine grams × yield / 100. Troy ounces = recovered fine grams / 31.1034768. Reference metal value = troy ounces × entered price. Scenario cost = reference value × (1 + premium / 100) + fixed charges.
The recovery yield is an assumed material outcome, not a refiner’s quote. A supplier may price gross feed differently. These are cost comparisons, not predicted sale proceeds, profit or investment advice.
