How to calculate the methanol to corn ratio
Methanol to Corn ratio = Methanol price per Metric Ton ÷ Corn price per Bushel
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — Bushels of corn per Metric Ton of methanol — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $2,861.00 ÷ $5.19 = 550.7. The inverse is 0.001816.
