CALCULATING COST OF MATERIAL
The Cost function provides the total
cost for material, based on a stored
unit cost (e.g., dollar per Yard in US
Display Mode, and dollar per Meter in
Metric Display Mode) and an entered
quantity of material.
Fabric Cost Example
Find the yardage for 20 five-Inch
squares. How much will the material
cost if the material is $9.99 per Yard?
First, calculate the Yardage required to
make ten squares. Then calculate the
total fabric cost.

Note: Any unitless number entry into c =
stores the Cost per Yard (if in Metric Mode, it
stores the Cost per Meter). Once you have a
value stored in Cost, you can then enter in your
Yardage (or Meterage) to find the total cost per
Yard (or Meter).
