Cost simulator

The cost simulator calculates the cost of a course or component, based on the number of students in each stage, and the information entered in the teaching hours.
The simulator takes mutualization into account, and provides the O/W ratio.
In order to adjust the cost of training, it is possible, directly within the tool, to modify values such as the number of teaching hours or the number of students.
