business-languageword-choice

In business English, what is the correct way to say:

Price per 100 pieces?

the context is a table listing unit price when the overall quantity is of 100 pieces.

In short: if you buy 100 pieces, the price for every single piece is: [price here]

Best Answer

Let us say one piece costs $10. So 10 pieces would cost $100. Say, if someone buys 100 or more pieces, you provide a 10% discount. In this case, 100 pieces would cost $900, 110 pieces would cost $990, and so the unit price would be $9.

Now, let's summarize the usage:

If you want to refer to the total cost for all 100 pieces sold as a single unit, use:

Price per 100 pieces

If you want to refer to the price of each piece, use:

Price per piece (or unit price)

If it is price of each piece when someone buys at least 100 pieces, use:

Unit price for a minimum purchase of 100 pieces

I think it is the last one you are looking for.

Hope this helps.
