Enter the total banner area (ft^2) and the cost per square foot of banner ($/ft^2) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Banner Cost. 

Banner Cost Formula

BC = BA * CPSF

Variables:

  • BC is the Banner Cost ($)
  • BA is the total banner area (ft^2)
  • CPSF is the cost per square foot of banner ($/ft^2)

To calculate the Banner Cost, multiply the banner size by the cost per square foot.

How to Calculate Banner Cost?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Banner Cost.


  1. First, determine the total banner area (ft^2). 
  2. Next, determine the cost per square foot of banner ($/ft^2). 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = BC = BA * CPSF.
  4. Finally, calculate the Banner Cost.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

total banner area (ft^2) = 30

cost per square foot of banner ($/ft^2) = 2.5
