How Discounts are Calculated

Example 1 - Discount ($)

Discount ($) for a family of three children with only the multiple participant discounts

• The second child receives $50 off

• The third child receives a $100 discount

• Registration fees are $500, $400, and $100.

• The membership fee is $46.16

Q: In this example, why did the participant not receive the full $100 discount?

A: Discounts are not calculated on the membership fee - only the registration portion, and the highest discount is applied to the lowest fee. Therefore, only $53.84 could be discounted.

Example 2 - Discount ( % )

• Discount using % with a Family of 3.

• Second child receives 25% off

• Third child receives 50% off

• Registration fees: $500, $400 and $300

• Membership fee is $65.16

Example 3 - Postal Code and Multiple Participant Discounts ($)

Cash rebate ($) for a family of three children with both the postal code and multiple participant rebates

• Each child receives a $25.00 postal code discount

• The second child receives a $50.00 discount

• The third child receives a $100 discount

• Registration fees are $500, $400, and $300.
