We recommend that you first customize your materials list to remove unwanted items. You can always come back later and tweak your prices; so don’t worry about making them absolutely perfect the first time.
Matboard can be priced by a Formula
which takes your cost of goods (COG) and times it by a Markup plus
a Set Price, e.g.
Retail Price = Cost x
Markup + Set

A question that is often asked is, “What is the easiest method for pricing my matboard?” The easiest method in FrameReady is to use a Formula: you can use the FrameReady default formula or set up your own Formulas and custom defaults.
Tip: In most cases a Formula is more desirable because it is easier to set up, and when your COG changes, the retail price updates automatically.
If you want to price your matboard using an existing chart or table that uses the UI, then you will need to create Code Tables (or modify the existing ones) to match your chart.
