Enter the total cost ($) and the overall area (ft^2) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Cost Per 100 Square Foot. 

Cost Per 100 Square Foot Formula

CP100 = TC / A * 100

Variables:

  • CP100 is the Cost Per 100 Square Foot ($/100ft^2)
  • TC is the total cost ($)
  • A is the overall area (ft^2)

To calculate the Cost Per 100 Square Foot, divide the total cost by the area in square feet, then multiply by 100.

How to Calculate Cost Per 100 Square Foot?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Cost Per 100 Square Foot.


  1. First, determine the total cost ($). 
  2. Next, determine the overall area (ft^2). 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = CP100 = TC / A * 100.
  4. Finally, calculate the Cost Per 100 Square Foot.
  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 cost ($) = 300

overall area (ft^2) = 20
