Notes

  • The magic formula for quantity (N = 2 to 256) discounts is

    N/(1 + (0.51 + 0.0029*N)*log10(N))
    21.7364.25106.50
    32.4074.832011.50
    43.0485.394019.97
    53.6695.958033.16

    For all products, the formula above is applied directly to obtain the base quantity price as

    BaseQuantityPrice = UnitPrice*formula(N)
    where N is the quantity ordered.

    Please contact Whiteley Research if questions.

Leasing and Rental

The XicTools products are available with fixed-term licensing on a per-month basis. After 24 monthly payments, ownership is transfered to the customer and a permanent license is supplied. The remaining payments can be advanced at any time to effect purchase.

Leasing is an effective way of deferring payment to future fiscal periods, and may be attractive for short-term projects.

  • Discounts do not apply to leasing rates.

  • Apply the following formula to determine the monthly lease rate for a workgroup. First, compute the base quantity price as above. The monthly rate is
    MonthlyRate = BaseQuantityPrice*1.08/24

  • Full technical support and fast-track updates apply during the term of the lease. Full technical support and fast-track updates continue to one year after the customer acquires ownership.

  • Leasing is not available for single-unit XicII, though special payment options may be available. Contact Whiteley Research for information.
