You may also use the ProjectCalc Plus MX to determine
the cost of materials, if you know the material’s cost per
unit. It’s a simple calculation, but useful, as you can
quickly convert directly from a previously calculated
quantity (e.g., cubic metres) to a total Euro cost format.
See the following examples.
