The formula to calculate the Horsepower Per Dollar (HPD) is:
\[ HPD = \frac{HP}{D} \]
Where:
Horsepower per dollar is a metric used to determine the cost efficiency of a vehicle or engine in terms of the power it produces. It is calculated by dividing the total horsepower by the total cost. This metric is useful for comparing the value of different vehicles or engines, helping consumers and businesses make informed decisions based on performance and cost.
Let's say the total horsepower (HP) is 300 hp, and the total cost (D) is $30,000. Using the formula:
\[ HPD = \frac{300}{30,000} = 0.01 \]
So, the Horsepower Per Dollar (HPD) is 0.01 HP/$.
