E-DRUG: Mark-up percentages for Drug Revolving Funds (5)
--------------------------------------------------------

dear E-druggers,

In addition to all factors already mentioned by other contributors, one
should also factor in a percentage for inflation (which is different from
the depreciation mentioned by Libby Levison -- depreciation is only
relevant when buying abroad, inflation is almost always relevant).

In countries with hyper-inflation this can actually be the biggest element in the mark-up!

Best,
