The "Rate Incl. Fee" calculation is derived like so:
CoinCost = 10000
PercentFee = 7.0
FixedFee = 1.00
Tender= 100.00

Calculate AdjTender:

  1. Customer inserts Tender into the BATM,

  2. FixedFee is directly deducted from that: 100 - 1 = 99

  3. AdjTender is: 99

Calculate the effective purchase amount:

  1. Divide AdjTender by the profit rate,

  2. AdjTender / (1 + (.01 * PercentFee))

    1. 99 / (1 + (.01 * 7)) = 99 / (1 + .07) = 99 /1.07 = 92.523364486

    2. the effective purchase amount tendered after fees is: 92.523364486

    3. this amount is not displayed in any reporting.

The math? This may seem unintuitive - but we need to retain the base amount.

A % markup and a % discount are calculate differently. The goal of the equation is:

  • from what number will a certain % markup generate the AdjTender amount?

In this example, a 7% markup of $92.52, when added to $92.52, equals the AdjTender of $99.

  • Your profit amount (in this example) is: $100 - $92.52 = $7.48 (rounded).

Calculate the amount of coin at the effective rate:

  1. Divide the purchase amount by the cost of the coin,

  2. 92.523364486 / CoinCost

  3. 92.523364486 / 10000 = 0.009252336 BTC

    1. 0.009252336 is the transaction amount.

Info

Percentages are trickier than you might think. Here’s how to calculate your profit %.

  • Yet another example of the (correct) markup calculation:

    • Fixed fee 0 USD

    • 1 BTC = 100 USD

    • 7% markup/fee

The BTC exchange rate for end customers is: 1 BTC = 107 USD.

  • What is the profit of the operator when somebody buys 1 BTC? Hint: 👉 7 USD

  • Operator bought 1 BTC for 100 USD and sold it for 107 USD. 7% markup

  1. Customer inserts 107 USD.

  2. They will receive 1 BTC.

  3. What is the profit of the operator? 7 USD.

Calculation is: 107/1.07 = 100. Operator’s profit is 107 - 100 = 7 USD.

The (erroneous) discount calculation should not be considered here, and this is why:

  • 7% of 107 = 7.49, subtracting that from 107 = 99.51, which is less than a whole BTC.

  • Someone would be cheated by this equation.

Tip

One more Example

Yet another explanation of calculation (transaction ROABHX):

  1. Customer inserted $55

  2. Amount inserted without fixed fee = $55(total inserted) - $2.99 (fixed fee) = $52.01

  3. Amount without markup = $52.01 ÷ 115(operator’s markup 15%) × 100 = 0,45226087 ×100 = $45,226086957

  4. Operator’s markup = $52.01 - $45,226086957 = $6,78
