Need to consider the additional processing steps and the cost differences associated with other processes. Since the price for ‘Aluminum, 7075, wrought, T6’ as quoted is based on billet material, you would need to obtain market prices or supplier quotes for coils or slabs to determine the cost difference. Then, add this cost difference to the base material cost to get a more accurate cost estimation.
