Not bad, thanks!!!

Why do you think it doesn't work something more human readable like this?

#+begin_src calc
                solve([
                a = 300 m,
                b = 300 m,
                Area = a*b,
                cost = 1 (USD/m^2),
                z = Area*cost

                ], [a, b, Area, cost, z])
#+end_src


Best regards
