Subsidy cap

Maximum amount or cost basis recognised by a support programme.

01

Simple definition

Maximum amount or cost basis recognised by a support programme.

02

Why it matters

This term changes how inputs, cash flows or results should be interpreted. RATIOXA keeps it explicit so two options are compared on the same basis.

03

Worked example

A high rate on capped cost does not subsidise the entire quote.
