(*The “delta for exchange rate” is a small, monthly updated element accounting for the temporal change of the exchange rate of the Ariary to the US-Dollar. In Particular, this was invented to account for the fact, that there is a time difference (estimated to be three weeks) between buying fuels in the international markets and selling them to customers. Therefore, this delta is positive for a weakening Ariary (as was mainly the case since its introduction in 2005), or negative else.)
