How is it calculated?

  • Ct (each row) = [Inclusion %] ÷ 100 × [Price per ton]
  • Mix protein (each row) = [Inclusion %] ÷ 100 × [Protein %]
  • cf (each row) = [Inclusion %] ÷ 100 × [Fat %]
  • Total inclusion = [Σ Inclusion %]
  • Cost per ton = [Σ Ct]
  • Mix protein = [Σ Mix protein]
  • Mix fat = [SUM_CF]
  • Cost per protein point = [Σ Ct] ÷ [Σ Mix protein]
