Worked Examples

Let's look at a couple of examples to understand how the calculator works.

Example 1: Sending 50 Cards

If you plan to send 50 cards using standard paper and standard shipping, the calculation would be:

Total Cost = (50 × $0.10) + $5.00 = $5.00 + $5.00 = $10.00

This means the total cost for sending 50 cards would be $10.00.

Example 2: Sending 100 Cards

If you plan to send 100 cards using premium paper and express shipping, the calculation would be:

Total Cost = (100 × $0.20) + $15.00 = $20.00 + $15.00 = $35.00

This means the total cost for sending 100 cards would be $35.00.
