How to calculate the cost per bar of meal replacement bars?

To find the cost per bar, you can use the following formula:

Cost per Bar (C) is calculated as:

§§ C = \frac{P \times (1 - \frac{D}{100})}{N} §§

where:

  • § C § — cost per bar
  • § P § — price per pack
  • § D § — discount percentage (if any)
  • § N § — number of bars per pack

This formula allows you to determine how much you will pay for each individual bar after accounting for any discounts.

Example:

Price per Pack (§ P §): $20

Number of Bars per Pack (§ N §): 10

Discount (§ D §): 10%

Cost per Bar:

§§ C = \frac{20 \times (1 - \frac{10}{100})}{10} = \frac{20 \times 0.9}{10} = 1.80 §$
