Prop Cost Research: A Base-Asset Fee Changes the Usable Quantity
A fee taken from the purchased asset changes the quantity retained. Preserve the asset and fee convention before calculating the usable amount or per-unit cost. A quote-currency fee and a base-unit fee are different movements.

Record gross quantity and actual fee asset
In a fictional inventory exercise,10 base units cost 100 quote units and the fee is 0.1 base unit taken from the acquired quantity. Net retained quantity is 9.9. Quote cash paid remains 100 under the supplied model.
Do not subtract 0.1 from 100 as though the units were the same. Likewise, do not retain 10 as usable inventory after the base fee has been debited. Preserve unique movement IDs so a later export does not create a second fee.
Calculate the explicit unit-cost metric
The supplied quote outlay per net retained unit is 100/9.9, approximately 10.1010. That is different from the gross purchase price 10. At the same supplied valuation price 10, the retained 9.9 units value to 99 quote units.
The one-unit value difference comes from the modeled base fee, not a price decline. This exercise does not establish a provider’s accounting convention or spot-product availability. Actual instruments can have different settlement and fee definitions that require their own specifications.
| Record | Value | Unit or meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Gross purchased | 10 | Base units |
| Fee /net retained | 0.1 /9.9 | Base units |
| Cash outlay | 100 | Quote units |
| Outlay per net unit | 100/9.9 ≈10.1010 | Quote per retained base unit |
Keep the reporting and account questions distinct
The related resource preserves this site’s gross/net-quantity method. A Canadian reporting conversion, if needed, requires its own dated input. Neither residence nor a display label changes the original debit asset or supplies a missing account valuation.
The optional sponsored HashHedge link offers current programme information. No purchase, fee or customer inventory is claimed as real. The worksheet is a unit audit rather than an offer of spot trading or a promise that an evaluation will be profitable.
