How to use this count unit calculator

  1. Enter the product price.
  2. Enter the pack count, quantity, and count unit.
  3. Add another item to compare the price per item, load, piece, or pack and find the lowest cost.

When to compare count unit prices

Use this calculator for products sold as discrete items instead of by weight, liquid volume, or length. It works well for dishwasher pods, laundry loads, diapers, batteries, trash bags, cans, bottles, capsules, and multipacks.

Count comparisons are useful when one package has a lower shelf price but another package gives you more usable items for the money.

Count price examples

A 24-pack can be cheaper at checkout than a 40-pack but still cost more per item. The same pattern shows up with detergent pods, dishwasher tablets, snack packs, bottled drinks, and disposable household goods.

Enter the number of packs and the count per pack so the calculator can compare the total usable count.

Simple count price formula

Divide the total price by the total number of usable items. For multipacks, multiply the number of packs by the quantity in each pack before dividing the price.
