português termo ou frase: use of 'ascrescer' in this phrase
com o acréscimo de preço de €xxx.

I need a second, third, fourth opinion on the translation of this phrase, becuase the amount referred to (€xxx) happens to be the exact same amount as the original price in a buy-back deal, so what they seem to be saying is that the price is in fact DOUBLED! Given that the numbers are so large (hundreds of millions) this strikes me as POSSIBLY an odd coincidence.

Explicação:
You are dealing with fraudulent transactions and whatnot, so anything is possible; but it is natural to start with a strong presumption that the buy-back price is the same as the sell price, certainly not double.

Then I would drop it on someone's lap, because the text SAYS, literally, that there was / will be a 100% price increase at buy-back time. One cannot ignore that.

Also, the text smells of a translation itself. I suspect that the questionable passage is a result of faulty translation (or drafting). I would not want any of this on MY lap.

It is not correct to say: with an increase in price ON, it would be OVER.

With a price increase of x, means that this amount is added to the first, if that's double, it's double.

REF: just understand the Portuguese. No dictionary required!
