4. **Add other fees** — Include preservation, application fees if applicable
5. **Present breakdown** — Show detailed fee calculation

## Usage

### Basic Calculation
```

"起诉10万块钱要多少诉讼费"
"离婚案件诉讼费多少"
```

### With Specific Amount
```
"50万标的诉讼费"
"财产保全费用计算"
"劳动仲裁诉讼费"
```

### Compare Scenarios
```
"100万和200万诉讼费差多少"
"不同金额诉讼费对比"
```

## Calculation Examples

### Example 1: Property Dispute ¥500,000
- Base: ¥500,000 × 1.5% + ¥1,300 = ¥8,800
- **Total: ¥8,800**

### Example 2: Property Dispute ¥1,000,000
- Base: ¥1,000,000 × 1% + ¥3,800 = ¥13,800
- **Total: ¥13,800**

### Example 3: Divorce Case (no property dispute)
- **Fee: ¥50-¥300** (varies by court)

### Example 4: Divorce with ¥1,000,000 property
- Base: ¥300
- Property excess: (¥1,000,000 - ¥200,000) × 0.5% = ¥4,000
- **Total: ¥4,300**
