What is the right way for the price calculation?

Hello Support,

important question:

What is the right way for the price calculation:

0 < cost < $1 cost = XX
$1 < cost < $2 cost = XX
$2 < cost < $5 cost = XX
...
...like the info in the "Knowledge base" (https://alidropship.com/codex/5-what-kind-of-profit-margins-are-there-with-dropshipping/)

OR

0 < cost < $0.99 cost = XX
$1 < cost < $1.99 cost = XX
$2 < cost < $4.99 cost = XX
...
...so if this is correct, the "Knowledge base" must be changed.

What is right now?

Logic would indicate option 2. But if you don't get any answer from Support here ... I suggest you make two test formulas ...

0 < cost < $1 cost = $5
$1 < cost < $2 cost = $10

... then import something that costs $1 ... and see which price the plugin applies. I'm guessing it will either apply the first formula, do nothing ... or have a nervous breakdown

If you set your formula like
0 < cost < $1 cost = XX
$1 < cost < $2 cost = XX
$2 < cost < $5 cost = XX

then the first meaning will be applied.

But that's not the "correct" way, right? He wants to know which way is correct. It's crazy to have two formulas that conflict with each other and only one of them works or gets applied. i.e...

1.....0 < cost < $1 cost = XX ... this works / gets applied.
2.... $1 < cost < $2 cost = XX ... this does not work / does not get applied.

It does not make any sense.

Logically, the correct way is ...

0 < cost < $0.99 cost = XX
$1 < cost < $1.99 cost = XX
$2 < cost < $4.99 cost = XX

... but he wants Support to tell him that. I don't think he believes me .. :)
