Diamond Cost Per Carat Calculator

How to Use the Calculator

1. Enter the total price of the diamond in dollars ($).
2. Enter the carat weight of the diamond.
3. Click the "Calculate" button to determine the cost per carat.
4. The result will be displayed in the Cost Per Carat section.

Understanding the Formula

The calculator uses the following formula to determine the cost per carat:

Cost Per Carat = Total Price / Carat Weight

For example, if a diamond costs $5,000 and weighs 1.5 carats, the cost per carat would be:

$5,000 / 1.5 carats = $3,333.33 per carat

Important Notes

• Ensure that both the total price and carat weight are entered in valid numerical formats.
• The carat weight should be a positive number and cannot be zero or negative.
• This calculator provides a basic estimate of the cost per carat and does not account for other factors such as diamond quality, cut, clarity, and color.
