CPR=CCRC

Where:

  • CPR = Cost Per Round
  • CC = Cartridge Cost
  • RC = Rounds Per Cartridge

Variables

CC Cartridge Cost ($)
RC Rounds Per Cartridge
CPR Cost Per Round ($/round)

How To Calculate Price Per Round

Example 1

  • Cartridge Cost: $60
  • Rounds Per Cartridge: 30

To find the Cost Per Round:

CPR=6030=2 C
 
So, the cost per round is $2.

Example 2

  • Cartridge Cost: $75
  • Rounds Per Cartridge: 25

To find the Cost Per Round:

CPR=7525=3
 
Thus, the cost per round is $3.

Variables

Variable Description
Bulk Cost Bulk Purchase Cost ($)
Total Rounds Total Rounds Purchased
Discount Rate Discount Rate (%)
DCPR Discounted Cost Per Round ($/round)

Calculation Example

Example

  • Bulk Purchase Cost: $300
  • Total Rounds Purchased: 150
  • Discount Rate: 10%

To find the Discounted Cost Per Round:

DCPR=300×(110100)150=300×0.9150=270150=1.8

Thus, the discounted cost per round is $1.80.
