Sample Description: On the day of data publication, Chempricehub monitors theoretical costs and profits based on the acrylic acid prices it has collected.

Definitions:

  • Cost: Production cost is defined as the sum of direct expenses, direct labor, and indirect manufacturing overhead incurred by an enterprise to produce a specific type and quantity of product. For acrylic acid, this refers to the theoretical production cost based on the raw material (propylene).
  • Profit: This is calculated based on the price benchmarks for petrochemical enterprises producing acrylic acid. It represents the market price minus total costs and additional fees (excluding financial expenses).

Statistical Methodology: The statistical period runs from last Friday to this Thursday. Comparisons are made between the profit data of this Thursday and last Thursday. Chempricehub’s acrylic acid profit data is primary statistical data, published between 15:00 and 17:00 on working Thursdays.
