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

Wallpaper Cost Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Wallpaper Cost. 

WC = A * CPSF

  • Where WC is the Wallpaper Cost ($)
  • A is the total area of wallpaper needed (ft^2) 
  • CPSF is the total cost per square foot of wallpaper ($/ft^2) 

How to Calculate Wallpaper Cost?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Wallpaper Cost.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total area of wallpaper needed (ft^2). The total are of wallpaper needed (ft^2) is given as 50.
  2. Next, determine the total cost per square foot of wallpaper ($/ft^2). The total cost per square foot of wallpaper ($/ft^2) is provided as 2.00.
  3. Finally, calculate the Wallpaper Cost using the equation above: 

WC = A * CPSF

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

WC = 50 * 2.00 = 100 ($)


Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total area of wallpaper needed (ft^2) = 60

total cost per square foot of wallpaper ($/ft^2) = 3.00

Entering these values and solving gives:

WC = A * CPSF = 180.00 ($)
