How much to heat some water?
How much does it cost to make a good cup of coffee? The calculation in my own kitchen is complicated enough, given the fluctuation in world bean markets from warfare or striking monkeys, but I can smooth out the equation by storing huge quantities of my favourite blend in the back of the freezer compartment. Similarly, although Timmys and Robins and Starbuck probably keep a whole team of economic wizards on retainer to assure that a cup generates profit, my cost is simple (I never shop there).
