Symbol p^in_i

Its job in the formula

$p^i$$n_i$ is a part of this expression. Its role is fixed by the surrounding article and by the operations shown in the formula.

Where the article explains it

Reading $p^{\text{in}}_i$ and $p^{\text{out}}_i$ off a rate card and comparing them directly across vendors is equivalent to assuming $\kappa_i$ , $\gamma_i$ , and $\rho_i$ are all equal to each other and to 1 across every vendor in the comparison.
