What this calculator measures
Unit price normalizes two package totals so different quantities can be compared on the same basis.
Formula
Unit Price = Total Price / Quantity
Worked example
- 1Pack A is $18 for 12 units ($1.50 each). Pack B is $25 for 20 units ($1.25 each).
- 2Pack B has the lower unit price.
How to interpret the result
The cheaper unit is better value only when quality, usable quantity, and waste are comparable.
Common mistakes and limits
