Replace the example values with figures from your supplier sheet or measurements. Choose the unit beside each value. Results update as you type; fix any highlighted field before using the result.

GSM means grams per square metre. Net weight excludes the core and other packaging. MOQ means the minimum order quantity. An optional field can stay blank unless the result you need depends on it.

Prices keep the selected currency; changing its label does not convert an exchange rate. Save or export the result after checking your inputs.

Dispensed fill cost

€0.6000/parcel

Cost/parcel = Measured dose × Pack price ÷ Usable pack yield

dose = 8; bag = 400; price = 30 → Dispensed fill cost = 0.6 currency/parcel

The formula, made clear.

Cost/parcel = Measured dose × Pack price ÷ Usable pack yield

Measure dosage and usable pack yield in the same dispensed state. Nominal compressed bag volume is not necessarily usable dispensed volume.

How to use this calculator

  1. 01

    Confirm measured dispensed dose, usable dispensed volume per pack, price per pack.

  2. 02

    Enter consistent units; zero means a confirmed absence of a charge or allowance.

  3. 03

    Review the arithmetic, rounding and limitations before using the result in a purchasing decision.
