Bullion Premium Calculator Workflow

A bullion premium calculation starts with spot, but the useful number is delivered cost versus likely exit bid.

Open dashboard Create alert Track portfolio

Inputs

Record spot reference, product ask, quantity, shipping, payment cost, tax, storage, and dealer buyback bid.

Premium over spot

Premium over spot is useful, but it is incomplete without bid-ask spread and delivery terms. A low premium can still hide weak exit liquidity.

Monitoring

Use MetalBrief to monitor spot and alerts, then keep transaction math separate so market movement and dealer terms do not blur together.
