Explanation of the metal factor
Surcharges will be added to the prices of products that contain
silver, copper, aluminum, lead and/or gold if the respective basic
official prices for these metals are exceeded.
The surcharges will be determined based on the following
criteria:
• Official price of the metal
Official price on the day prior to receipt of the order or prior to
the release order (=daily price) for
- silver (sale price of the processed material),
- gold (sale price of the processed material)

and for
- copper (low DEL notation + 1%),
- aluminum (aluminum in cables) and
- lead (lead in cables)

• Metal factor of the products
Certain products are assigned a metal factor. The metal factor
determines the official price as of which the metal surcharges
are charged and the calculation method used (weight or
percentage method). An exact explanation is given below.
Structure of the metal factor
The metal factor consists of several digits; the first digit indicates
whether the method of calculation refers to the list price or a
discounted price (customer net price)
(L = list price / N = customer net price).
The remaining digits indicate the method of calculation used for
the respective metal. If no surcharge is added, a "-" is used.
Weight method
The weight method uses the basic official price, the daily price
and the raw material weight. In order to calculate the surcharge,
the basic official price must be subtracted from the daily price.
The result is then multiplied by the raw material weight.
The basic official price can be found in the table below using the
number (2 to 9) of the respective digit of the metal factor. The raw
material weight can be found in the respective product descrip-
tions.
Percentage method
Use of the percentage method is indicated by the letters A-Z at
the respective digit of the metal factor.
The surcharge is increased - dependent on the deviation of the
daily price compared with the basic official price - using the
percentage method in "steps" and consequently offers
surcharges that remain constant within the framework of this
"step range". A higher percentage rate is charged for each new
step. The respective percentage level can be found in the table
below.
