How to calculate the coal to gas oil ratio
Coal to Gas Oil ratio = Coal price per Metric Ton ÷ Gas Oil price per 100 Tonnes
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — 100 Tonness of gas oil per Metric Ton of coal — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $131.50 ÷ $1,259.00 = 0.1044. The inverse is 9.574.
