   Box Area = 2 × (Length + Width + 2) × (Width + Height + Flap)

   (Adds 2mm for folding tolerance and includes flap length)

2. Sheet Area with Wastage:

   Sheet Area = Box Area × (1 + Wastage%)

   *(Typical wastage 3-10%)*

3. Box Weight:

   text

    

   Box Weight (g) = GSM × (Sheet Area in m²) × Ply Factor

   *(Ply factors: 1 for 3-ply, 1.7 for 5-ply, 2.4 for 7-ply)*

4. Material Cost:

   text

    

   Material Cost = (Box Weight in kg) × Paper Rate per kg

5. Production Cost:

   text

    

   Production Cost = Sheet Area (in sqm/sqft) × Conversion Rate

6. Total Cost per Box:

   text

    

   Total Cost = (Material Cost + Production Cost + Printing + Transport) × (1 + Profit%) × (1 + Tax%)
