How to use
Enter transport, lodging, food, and extras, plus people and days. The result shows total cost, per person, and per person per day.
Formula
total = transport + lodging + food + extras per person = total ÷ people per person-day = total ÷ (people × days)
Worked example
- Transport $200 + lodging $450 + food $180 + extras $70 = $900. For 2 people over 3 days → $450 each, $150 per person-day.
Assumptions
- All amounts use the same currency.
- People and days must be positive.

- Is lodging per night or total?
