## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, programmatic computation of Customer Acquisition Cost from raw cost and customer count inputs, especially within an automated financial or marketing analytics workflow. It is suitable for solo entrepreneurs, side hustlers, or small teams who want a lightweight, API-accessible CAC calculator without a full analytics platform.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (sales_costs, marketing_costs, or new_customers) may return an error or unexpected result
- Division by zero if new_customers is 0
- Non-numeric or negative input values may cause validation failures
- Vague or undocumented error response format due to minimal response schema
- Payment failure via x402 protocol if USDC balance is insufficient

## Output

A JSON response containing a result field (e.g. 'processed') and a status field ('success'), indicating the calculation was completed.
