FAQ

How is cost per unit calculated?

Cost per unit is calculated by dividing the total price by the quantity. For example, if a 32oz bottle costs $4.99, the cost per ounce is $4.99 / 32 = $0.156 per ounce.

Is the cheapest per unit always the best deal?

Not always. Consider factors like shelf life, storage space, quality differences, and whether you can use the larger quantity before it expires. Sometimes paying slightly more per unit for a smaller size makes more sense.

What units should I use for comparison?

Use the same unit for all items being compared. Common units include ounces (oz), pounds (lb), liters (L), count (ct), or grams (g). Make sure all items use the same unit for accurate comparison.
