Enter the total weight of concrete needed (lbs) and the cost per pound of concrete ($/lb) into the Concrete Cost Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Concrete Cost.
Concrete Cost Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Concrete Cost.
CC = WCC * CPP
- Where CC is the Concrete Cost ($)
- WCC is the total weight of concrete needed (lbs)
- CPP is the cost per pound of concrete ($/lb)
How to Calculate Concrete Cost?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Concrete Cost.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total weight of concrete needed (lbs). The total weight of concrete needed (lbs) is given as 1,000.
- Next, determine the cost per pound of concrete ($/lb). The cost per pound of concrete ($/lb) is provided as 3.00.
- Finally, calculate the Concrete Cost using the equation above:
CC = WCC * CPP
The values given above are inserted into the equation below:
CC =1000 * 3.00 = 3,000.00 ($)
Example Problem #2:
The variables needed for this problem are provided below:
total weight of concrete needed (lbs) = 2,000
cost per pound of concrete ($/lb) = 2.50
Entering these values and solving gives:
CC = WCC * CPP = 5,000.00 ($)
