You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Assume there are 4 weeks per month.
Then the cost per week would be
W=115%2F4
.
.
.
For a more exact value, since there are 12 months per year you would spend Y per year.
Y=12%28115%29
Since there are 52 weeks in a year, then the cost per week would be,
W=Y%2F52=%2812%28115%29%29%2F52
.
.
.
Work those values out for whichever scenario fits best.
