MULTIPLIERS
For products with more than one multiplier available under the Living Economy Sourcing Imperative (LES), the quantity of multipliers must be added together before applying the applicable multipliers.
Example of Acceptable Calculation:
(Declare Multiplier + Salvage Multiplier + 1 [represents original product value]) x product cost
example: (1+1+1) × $1,000 = $3,000 LES value
Example of Calculation That Will Not be Accepted:
((Declare Multiplier +1) x product cost) + ((Salvage Multiplier +1) x product cost)
incorrect example: ((1+1) × $1,000) + ((1+1) × $1,000) = $4,000 LES value
