Can anyone explain the following discrepancy?, I am new to Xaurum so I apologize if it is a simple question.
There was 8,092,484.2232 Xaurum coins issued on Mint 23 July 2, 2017. That means that the Auresco Institute received $2,307,167.25203 USD for purchasing gold, however the Gold increased proportion was only 21,868.49 grams, considering the price of gold floats around $40 USD and the price of refinery is maximum 10 extra that means each 1 gram gold bar should have costed 50$ maximum, and if Xaurum buys in high volume this means the price was probably lower. That being said if the Auresco institute received $2,307,167.25, and only 21,868.49 grams of gold were added to the common wealth, if we multiply times the price 21,868.49 x 50 USD per gram that means only $1,093,424.5 USD were used to buy more gold, $2,307,167.25203 - $1,093,424.5 = $1,213,742.75203 in unaccounted funds, another 24,274.8550406 grams of gold could have been added to the Commonwealth! Am I missing something, is there extra costs involved? Sorry I'm new to Xaurum it would be great if somebody could explain where the extra funds go....

I'm not a dev, but your matematics about Auresco Institute received money was wrong. They don't received 2,3 mio USD but about 1.093 mio USD (there your matematics is right).
In Coinage formula there is "minting price", price with discount for minter. This price is not directly related to new production price. You must study coinage formula.
Devs, please give as a link of Xaurum coinage spreadsheet.
