The Math / Science

Precious metals can be purchased as an investment.  The price fluctuates constantly.  This is called the spot price, the price of the bullion at a given moment.  To compute the amount (weight) of a metal you can buy, the formula is:

WT = INV/(DPO + MKU)

where:

  • WT = weight of precious metals
  • INV = Dollars invested
  • DPO = Dollars per Ounce (Troy Ounce)
  • MKU = Retailers Percent Markup
