# Using buyouts

The term Buyout comes from media production and refers to additional costs incurred when using a work, e.g. a photo or piece of music.

Customarily a buyout is determined by media, duration and territories, possibly also by whether the work may be used exclusively by the customer, which is reflected in a percentage surcharge to the actual service (e.g. composition, acting, photography).

In our example we calculate the sound design of an external music production as an external service:

Multiple buyouts can now be defined for this line item.

In our line item list the buyouts are now visible.

In the print version the buyouts are displayed directly on the line item.

{% hint style="info" %}
If I now change the price of the original line item (here: Sounddesign 1,700 EUR), the prices of the buyouts are recalculated automatically.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.dieagenturverwaltung.de/die-agenturverwaltung-en/finanzen-1/allgemeines-zu-finanzdokumenten/die-positionsliste-1/verwenden-von-buyouts.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
