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