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

Carpeting Cost Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Carpeting Cost. 

CC = CA * CPSF

  • Where CC is the Carpeting Cost ($)
  • CA is the total carpet area (ft^2) 
  • CPSF is the cost per square foot of carpet ($/ft^2) 

How to Calculate Carpeting Cost?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Carpeting Cost.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total carpet area (ft^2). The total carpet area (ft^2) is given as  250.
  2. Next, determine the cost per square foot of carpet ($/ft^2). The cost per square foot of carpet ($/ft^2) is provided as 20.
  3. Finally, calculate the Carpeting Cost using the equation above: 

CC = CA * CPSF

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

CC = 250 * 20 = 5000 ($)


Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total carpet area (ft^2) = 100

cost per square foot of carpet ($/ft^2) = 40

Entering these values and solving gives:

CC = CA * CPSF = 4000 ($)
