Egységára

Egységára is a Hungarian term that translates to "unit price" in English. It refers to the price of a single unit of a product or service. This concept is fundamental in commerce and is used to compare the value of different products or package sizes.

Understanding unit price allows consumers to make informed purchasing decisions. For example, when buying groceries, a larger container of a product might appear more expensive overall, but its unit price could be lower than a smaller, similarly packaged item. This is often the case with bulk purchasing. Businesses also use unit price for inventory management, cost analysis, and setting retail prices. It provides a standardized metric for evaluating profitability and efficiency.

The unit price is typically calculated by dividing the total price of a product by the quantity of the product. For example, if a 2-liter bottle of soda costs $3.00, its unit price would be $1.50 per liter. If a smaller 1-liter bottle costs $1.00, its unit price is also $1.00 per liter, making the smaller bottle a better value per unit. Regulations in many countries require businesses to display the unit price alongside the total price to aid consumer comparison.
