unit pricing
Per-ounce cost display
Unit pricing expresses the cost of a product per standard unit of measurement—per ounce, per pound, per liter—allowing comparison across different package sizes.
A store shelf might show a cereal box at $4.29 total but $0.18 per ounce.
Check the unit pricing before assuming the bigger box is a better deal.
