S                    R = S × 26                                                              (26 × 0.95)

1.00                      26.00                                          (1.30)                 24.70

0.95              24.70                                             -                          24.70

1.50              39.00                                           (14.30)               24.70

0.91                      23.66                                            1.04               24.70
