April 19, 2012 Alexander Obuobisa-Darko Sanitation The cost of rural VIP latrines range (inter-quartile) from US $ 64 –US $ 118 (median US $106). The lump sum capital expenditure for rural VIPs may not be affordable to the poorest in the rural areas. The operational and minor maintenance expenditure (OpEx) on latrines is between 3-4 US$ per capita per year. The OpEx on latrines for about five years is greater than the cost of constructing the latrines.
