amount for a particular week’s entry, rounded* (where necessary) to

the nearest 5 cent multiple.

((G x $0.50) x .09 rounded) x W = T

where —

G = No. of games entered in a draw
W = No. of weeks the entry spans
T = Total agent’s component cost payable

The total cost of entry for a Slikpik 25 entry for a single Monday lotto

or Wednesday lotto draw is calculated as follows —

Subscription [25 games @ $0.50 each] = $12.50
9% of subscription [.09 x $12.50] = $1.125
