👉 The bill math involves calculating the total cost of a proposed legislation by multiplying the base price or unit cost by the quantity to be purchased or implemented, and then adding any additional fees, taxes, or surcharges. For example, if a bill proposes to purchase 100 units of a product at $50 each with a 7% sales tax, the bill math would first calculate the subtotal by multiplying $50 by 100, resulting in $5,000. Then, the sales tax is calculated as 7% of $5,000, which equals $350. Adding this to the subtotal gives a total bill of $5,350. This process ensures that all costs associated with the bill are accounted for, providing a clear and accurate financial overview.
