Re: BoM Question

So, from the example in the rules:
We buy a 4'x4' aluminum sheet and use 10"x10".
We find a 1'x1' sheet for sale elsewhere.
The price on the BoM is the 1'x1'?

So it's not allowed to say, for example, the 1'x1' costs $5, and has 144 sq inches, which is .288 cents per sq inch. We used 100 of the 144 sq inches, which is an average cost of $3.47. Which number is the lowest acceptable?
