The formula to calculate the shipping cost per centimeter squared based on a defined cost per measurement is as follows.

```
COST PRICE / (WIDTH CM x HEIGHT CM)
```

For the current size range, you are editing the price formula; you should match the range limit value with the step in your shipping cost matrix and retrieve the cost price value.

E.g. You have set a [max size range](../../pricing-and-sizing/pricing-frame-fit-model/) that was 75cm, and in the shipping cost matrix, you have found the cost price for 75cm by 75cm to be a value of $98.00

Dimensions:75cm by 75cm

Price:$98.00

Calculation:98 / (75\*75) = $0.017 per centimeter~ number was rounded to 3 decimals
