How to calculate the lithium to urea ratio
Lithium to Urea ratio = Lithium price per Metric Ton ÷ Urea price per Metric Ton
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — Metric Tons of urea per Metric Ton of lithium — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $160,500.00 ÷ $409.00 = 392.4. The inverse is 0.002548.
