Price per Acre Calculator

If you're in the market to purchase land, there are many things to consider, the prime among them being price per acre. Just because the cost of a piece of land is within your budget doesn't always mean you're getting your buck's worth — you can only know that by calculating price per acre of the land (or another area unit of preference)!

An easy formula to calculate the price per acre is:

where:

• — Price per unit area;
• — Total cost of the land; and
• — Total area of the land.

When we use acres as the unit of area, we obtain the price per acre.

Let's say you come across two listings:

1. A 25-acre plot of land that costs $309,900.
2. An 18-acre parcel of land listed at $247,500.

At first glance, the second option appears cheaper. But is it really? Let's find out.

Let's start by calculating the cost per acre for the first option:

Now, let's calculate the land price per acre for the second option:
