Template:ItemCost

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Purpose

The purpose of this template is to abstract and format item costs.

Currently configured so no adjustments or conversions are applied.

Usage

{{ItemCost|country|value|currency_units|year=|origin=|r=|force=|lk=|exact=|qty=|tot=|suffix=|est=|ref=|mode=|convert=}}

Parameters

A description of the template's parameters are listed below.

Field name	Usage	Example	Description
`country_code`	mandatory	GBR	The country code of the currency, see the examples to find out what is currently supported. EUR for Euro (inflation adjustment would require using a country-specific code).
`value`	mandatory	10000.01	The value, in the country_code currency, that needs to be converted. The template will not accept pre-formatted values (i.e. 1,234).
`currency_units`	optional	m	Used to represent smaller or larger numbers. Available options are as follows. `ct` – to represent cent(s) `p` – to represent penny (pence) `pa` – to represent paisa (paise) (generalized to mean cents) `po` – to represent poysha (generalized to mean cents) `ba` – to represent baisa(s) (generalized to mean 1/1000) `k` – to represent thousand(s) `m` – to represent million(s) `b` – to represent short scale billion(s) `t` – to represent short scale trillion(s) `l` – to represent lakh(s) `c` – to represent crore(s) `lc` – to represent lakh crore(s) Brackets in the sense may be singular (or) plural. The Indian units can be applied to any currency.
`lk`	optional	lk=on	This parameter gives you the option of internally linking currency names (paise, which is generalized here to mean cents in the source currency) and/or number names (billion, trillion, lakh, crore). By default, the parameter is set to "off" (i.e. it is set not to link). Available options are as follows. `on` – to link all units `source` – to link the source value `original` – to link the values in the original currency `inflated` – to link the inflated value in the original currency `result` – to link the inflated and converted vales `converted` – to link the converted value `source-converted` – to link the source and converted values
`year`	optional	year=2002	This parameter allows entering values from previous years. The year will be displayed and historic values will be inflated to the latest year available in {{ ToUSD }}. If no index name is present, the conversion will be attempted for the year indicated (but see `force`). If `year` is not provided, just a conversion will be performed at the most current rate available.
`origin`	optional	origin=ESP	The country code of the shipyard's location, by default that corresponding to the currency is assumed (no country assumed for Euro).
`r`	optional	r=3	Sets the digits to which the results must be rounded. A negative value indicates rounding to an upper significant digit, and a positive value indicates a trailing zeros . Defaults to `2`.
`force`	optional	force=yes	This parameter allows to force a conversion at the most current rate available when data is lacking for the provided year when its value is `yes`.
`exact`	optional	exact=source	This provides some control over formatting. `source` requests to display the input value normally (in American fashion) after applying the units. `on` does this for both the input and result values. Otherwise all values will be displayed as per {{Format price}}.
`qty`	optional	qty=first	This allows adding a phrase that indicates to how many or which units the cost applies to.
`tot`	optional	tot=yes	`yes` indicates that the cost includes technology transfer.
`suffix`	optional	suffix=and training facilities	This allows appending an arbitrary wikitext to the output.
`est`	optional	est=yes	`yes` indicates that the cost is estimated.
`ref`	optional	ref=<ref>some wikitext ref</ref>	This allows displaying one or more references. Each one must consist of a ref wikitext element. The placement of the references is normalized (currently after the year, but this might be changed in the future).
`mode`	optional	mode=historical	This parameter allows to disable adjustment even if the template is configured to enable it.
`convert`	optional	convert=no	This parameter controls the currency conversion. Setting it to blank or omitting it results in the default mode. Setting it to `no` disables it.

Template parameters[Edit template data]
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Currency country code	`1`	ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code of the currency, see the examples to find out what is currently supported. EUR for Euro (inflation adjustment would require using a country-specific code). Example GBR	Line	required
Value	`2`	The value, in the source, that needs to be converted. The template will not accept pre-formatted values (i.e. 1,234). Example 500000000	Number	required
Currency units	`3`	Use this to represent larger numbers such as crores, billions et al. Example c, lc, b, m, k, cr, p, pa, po, ba	Line	suggested
Linking	`lk`	Gives option to whether link currency names (paise, etc.) or number names (crores, lakhs, billions, trillions) Example on, off, source, original, inflated, result, converted, source-converted	Line	suggested
Year	`year`	This parameter allows for inflation. Historic values will be inflated to the most current values available then converted. Example 2015	Number	suggested
Origin	`origin`	ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code of the shipyard's location, by default that corresponding to the currency is assumed (no country assumed for Euro). Example ESP	Line	optional
Rounding digits	`r`	Used to round significant digits. A value of "0" will drop paise or cent values from the converted number. By default the conversion will be rounded to two significant figures. Example 0	Number	optional
Force	`force`	This parameter allows to force a conversion at the most current rate available when data is lacking for the provided year when its value is "yes". Example yes	Line	optional
Exact	`exact`	This provides some control over formatting. "source" requests to display the input value normally (in American fashion) after applying the units. "on" does this for both the input and result values. Otherwise all values will be displayed as per Format price. Example source, on	Line	optional
Quantity	`qty`	This allows adding a phrase that indicates to how many or which units the cost applies to. Example first, 1, 4	Line	optional
Technology transfer	`tot`	yes indicates that the cost includes technology transfer Example yes	Line	optional
Suffix	`suffix`	This allows appending an arbitrary wikitext to the output. Example and training facilities	Line	optional
Estimated	`est`	yes indicates that the cost is estimated Example yes	Line	optional
References	`ref`	This allows displaying one or more references. Each one must consist of a ref wikitext element. The placement of the references is normalized (currently after the year, but this might be changed in the future). Example <ref>some wikitext ref</ref>	Content	suggested
Mode	`mode`	This parameter allows to disable the adjustment even if the template is enabling it. Default (blank) Example historical	Line	optional
