    Hi KGU_16031986 


    Thank you for contacting the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

     

    Your calculation is correct, with just a minor adjustment to consider:

    The conversion from CU-seconds to CU-hours and the application of the per-CU-hour rate are accurate. The total cost over 14 days is approximately AUD 32.9.

    The only suggestion is to normalize by the full 14-day window rather than the “active duration” (13.09 days), since the CU-consumption metric already reflects active versus idle usage.

         Per calendar day: 172.38 CU-h ÷ 14 = 12.31 CU-h/day

         Daily cost: AUD 2.35/day

          Estimated 30-day cost: ≈ AUD 70.4

    If you prefer to use “active days” (13.09), your figures of AUD 2.51/day and AUD 75.3/month remain valid.

    In summary, the total cost for the 14-day period (AUD 32.9) is correct. The difference in monthly projections depends on whether you use calendar days or active usage days for normalization.
