egységár

Egységár, a Hungarian term, 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 economics, allowing consumers and businesses to compare the value of different quantities of the same item or similar items from different sellers. For example, if a 500g pack of pasta costs 1000 HUF, its unit price is 200 HUF per kilogram or 0.2 HUF per gram. Similarly, a service priced at 5000 HUF per hour has an egységár of 5000 HUF per hour.

Retailers often display the unit price alongside the total price to facilitate informed purchasing decisions. This is particularly useful when comparing different package sizes or bulk discounts. A larger package might have a lower total price, but its unit price could be higher, indicating that it is not as good a value as a smaller, similarly priced item. Understanding egységár helps consumers make more economical choices and understand the true cost of goods and services. In economic analysis, unit pricing is also used for statistical purposes and for comparing the cost of living.
