Cost Per BTU Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Cost Per BTU (CBTU) is:

\[ CBTU = \frac{TC}{E} \]

Where:

$ CBTU $ is the cost per BTU ($/BTU).
$ TC $ is the total cost ($).
$ E $ is the total amount of energy (BTU).

Example

Let's say the total cost ($ TC $) is $100 and the total energy ($ E $) is 5000 BTU. Using the formula:

\[ CBTU = \frac{100}{5000} \]

We get:

\[ CBTU = 0.02 $/BTU \]

So, the Cost Per BTU ($ CBTU $) is $0.02 per BTU.

What is Cost Per BTU?

A cost per BTU is a metric describing the cost per one unit of energy, which in this case, is British Thermal Units (BTU). It helps in understanding the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of energy usage.
