Leave the price of gold blank, it will pickup the current spot price.

Study it ...learn how it works.

Math Fun Time!!!!

((1600x0.5833)/31.2).90=actual value per gram.

or $26.92

you can add about 42 cents to that number for every $25 spot increase.

Here is the easy math for any karat gold.

Take the spot price and divide it by 31.1035 to get to grams.

Then multiply it by the purity percentage of the gold. Each karat is a fraction of pure gold which is 24k. So 18k = 18/24 = 75% pure gold. 14k = 14/24 = 58.3% etc...

Take the price per gram x purity x weight = melt.

E.G. $1600 gold /31.1035 = $51.44 per gram of 24k
18k gold = 75%, so you would multiply $51.44 x .75 = $38.58
Multiply it by the weight e.g. 10 grams x $38.53 = $385.80 = actual melt value.

Note, you will never get the actual melt value from someone who is only interested in the gold content. Legitimate buying prices range from 60 - 90% unless you have hundreds of grams.
