Methodology Used in Trip Cost Calculator
The calculator estimates total trip cost using:
1. Total Cost: \\( C = (\text{dailyBudget} \cdot \text{travelers} \cdot \text{travelDays}) + \text{fixedCosts} \\)
Where:
- \\( C \\): Total trip cost (USD)
- \\( \text{dailyBudget} \\): Daily budget per person (USD)
- \\( \text{travelers} \\): Number of travelers
- \\( \text{travelDays} \\): Number of travel days
- \\( \text{fixedCosts} \\): Pre-paid costs, e.g., flights (USD)
Assumes even distribution of daily expenses.
Example Calculation
Sample Input
Daily Budget per Person = $60, Travelers = 2, Travel Days = 10, Fixed Costs = $800
Step 1: Daily expenses: \\( 60 \cdot 2 \cdot 10 = 1200 \, \text{USD} \\)
Step 2: Total cost: \\( 1200 + 800 = 2000 \, \text{USD} \\)
Result: Total Trip Cost = $2000.
