1. Find the current price of gold per ounce 24K

   Check the gold price in United States dollar per ounce 24K from a trusted source (e.g., 2,721)

2. Convert the price of gold from United States dollar to Central African CFA Franc

   Assume the exchange rate is 603 Central African CFA Franc per United States dollar. Use the formula:

   Gold price in Central African CFA Franc = Gold price in United States dollar × United States dollar to Central African CFA Franc exchange rate
   Gold price in Central African CFA Franc = 2,721 × 603 = 1,641,383 Central African CFA Franc per ounce 24K

3. Calculate the price per gram of 24K gold

   Since 1 ounce equals 31.1 grams, the price per gram of 24K gold is:

   Price per gram of 24K = Gold price in Central African CFA Franc / 31.1
   Price per gram of 24K = 1,641,383 / 31.1 ≈ 52,777.57 Central African CFA Franc

4. Convert the price from 24K to 18K gold

   Since 18K gold is 18 parts gold out of 24, the price for 18K gold is:

   Price per Gram of 18K gold = Price per Gram of 24K gold × (18 / 24)
   Price per Gram of 18K gold = 52,777.57 × (18 / 24) ≈ 39,583.18 Central African CFA Franc

5. Add the manufacturing cost

   Assume making charges are 2500 Central African CFA Franc per gram. The final price is:

   Final price of Gram 18K gold = Price per Gram of 18K gold + Making charges
   Final price of Gram 18K gold = 39,583.18 + 2500 = 42,083.18 Central African CFA Franc
