Lets say I can buy 200 of something for $20. but for $60, I can buy 750 of them. How can I quantify the money saved as cost per unit?

    Except buying objects in low quantities allow defects to be detected much sooner, letting you exchange/return/work a deal with the seller. If you buy stuff in bulk and realise the fourth sack of flour has mold, you’re likely to already have passed the reasonable threshold for exchange or return.
