## Cost Estimate Template

When writing cost estimates for tutorials, use this format:

```markdown
## Cost Estimate

| Task | GPU | Duration | Cost |
|------|-----|----------|------|
| Testing | RTX 3090 | 30 min | ~$0.01 |
| Batch job | RTX 4090 | 2 hours | ~$0.08 |
| Production | A100 | 1 day | ~$2.00 |
```

## Example Calculations

### Image Generation (1000 images)

* RTX 3090: \~2 hours = $0.04
* RTX 4090: \~1.5 hours = $0.06
* A100: \~1 hour = $0.08

### LLM Inference (1M tokens)

* RTX 3090: \~30 min = $0.01
* RTX 4090: \~20 min = $0.015
* A100: \~10 min = $0.015

### Video Generation (10 videos, 6s each)

* RTX 4090: \~20 min = $0.015
* A100: \~15 min = $0.02

### Model Training (1 epoch, medium dataset)

* RTX 3090: \~4 hours = $0.08
* RTX 4090: \~3 hours = $0.12
* A100: \~2 hours = $0.16

## Notes

* Prices may vary based on availability and demand
* Spot instances may be cheaper
* Multi-GPU setups have different pricing
