Compare the cost.
Read the terms.
Enter costs from two written provider quotes. Use the same metal, quantity, storage arrangement and holding period. All fields start empty: no provider prices are assumed.
This is a simple cost worksheet, not an investment-return forecast. It excludes metal-price changes, taxes, compounding and any costs you do not enter. Values stay in this page and are not submitted by this worksheet.
How the calculation works
Total stated outlay = quoted purchase total + setup costs + (annual costs × years) + estimated exit fees. It is not a net loss: you still own the metal, and its eventual sale value is not included. Enter zero only where your quote explicitly confirms no cost.
Check whether promotions expire, fees change with account value, insurance is included, and exit charges depend on the product. Lower stated costs alone do not establish suitability or service quality.
