5-year cost = first-year price + 4 x renew. The first-year price is the first-year sale price when the registrar's page showed one on the price date (column 'First-year sale'); otherwise it is the regular register price. The row marked 'lowest 5-year cost' has the lowest such total among the registrars compared here, nothing more. A sale can end at any time, and then the first year costs the regular price.
3-year cost = register + 2 x renew, using the regular register price and no sale price. Sources are the registrars' own public price pages, named as plain text.
