Using Price Components
To demonstrate how Price Components work the following example will activate Price Component 2 as Surcharge and Price Component 3 as Add'l Fee. Price Component 1 will remain active and labeled Base Matrl.
These additional Price Components can be selected from the Price Components drop-down list in the Prices table. Select Maintain - Prices to add rates to each Price Component table. A window similar to the following will appear.
Price Component 2
Select Price Component 2 (Surcharge for our example) from the drop-down list. Enter rates for those material items requiring an additional fee.
In the example above material 001 - 1/4 - 3/4 Washed Rock will calculate an additional $.50 per ton fee, 3/4 - 1 1/4 Washed Rock will calculate an additional $1.25 per ton fee, and Washed Sand will add an additional $5.00 fee to the total charge.

Price Component 3
Select Price Component 3 (Add'l Fee for our example) from the drop-down list. Enter rates for those material items requiring an additional fee.
In the example above material 001 - 1/4 - 3/4 Washed Rock will calculate an additional $.75 per ton fee, 3/4 - 1 1/4 Washed Rock will calculate an additional $.75 per ton fee, and Washed Sand will add an additional $2.00 fee to the total charge.

Calculating the Total Charge
The total charge is calculated in the following way:
- Net Weight * Price Component 1 Rate + Calculated Taxes = Base Charge 1
- Net Weight * Price Component 2 Rate + Calculated Taxes = Base Charge 2
- Net Weight * Price Component 3 Rate + Calculated Taxes = Base Charge 3
- Base Charge 1 + Base Charge 2 + Base Charge 3 = Grand Total Base Charge
Where the Net Weight is 10 Tons for material 001 - 1/4 - 3/4 Washed Rock and no taxes are applied
- 10 Tons * $2.50 + $0.00 = $25.00
- 10 Tons * $.50 + $0.00 = $5.00
- 10 Tons * $.75 + $0.00 = $7.50
- $25.00 + $5.00 + $7.50 = $37.50
