Unit Price Calculator

Compare package prices by cost per ounce, pound, item, or any other unit.

Compare packages that have different sizes by converting each one to a cost per unit, such as dollars per ounce, pound, count, or fluid ounce.

Unit-price formula

Divide the package price by the quantity. A $6 package containing 24 items costs $0.25 per item.

Use the same unit

Before comparing two products, make sure both quantities use the same unit. Convert pounds to ounces or liters to fluid ounces first if necessary.

Cheapest is not always best

Unit price helps compare cost, but quality, waste, shelf life, storage, and how much you actually need can change the better choice.
