The overall cost incurred by a user in terms of fees can be determined through a specific calculation.

This calculation is based on two primary factors: the amount of gas consumed and the price per unit of gas.

When multiplied together, these two factors yield the total gas fees paid by the user.

In addition to this, there's a concept of maximum gas fees, which serves as a ceiling for the potential cost of a transaction.

Maximum gas fees are calculated by multiplying the gas limit, which is the maximum amount of gas a transaction is allowed to consume, by the gas price.
