Laskettavan

Laskettavan is a Finnish word that functions as the genitive singular form of the adjective or participle laskettava, which stems from the verb laskea, meaning to count, calculate, or bill. The form laskettavan is used to describe something that is to be calculated, counted, or charged, and it typically appears before a noun in a genitive construction.

In practical use, laskettavan describes items or amounts that are subject to calculation or invoicing. It is common in accounting, contracts, and budgeting to specify what portion or amount will be determined or charged. For example, phrases like “laskettavan summan mukaan” (according to the amount to be billed) or “laskettavan tuotteen hinta” (the price of the product to be billed) illustrate how the form links the concept of billing to a noun.

The term is closely related to other Finnish forms derived from laskea, including laskutettava, which more directly conveys “billable.” Laskettavan, however, is specifically the genitive singular form used within noun phrases to indicate the object or amount that will be calculated or invoiced.

Overall, laskettavan is a grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical entry. It appears primarily in formal or technical contexts where the process of calculation or invoicing is being described or constrained.
