FREE BUYING TOOL
Which supply offer
really costs less?
A cheaper case can contain fewer items or cost more to deliver. Compare the same products, include every known charge and see the monthly cost before you decide.
USE YOUR OWN SUPPLIER NUMBERS
Compare two supply offers.
One product or complete set at a time. Costs stay in this browser and are not submitted.
We show a price difference once all costs are entered and you confirm the offers are comparable.
Assumes equal-size orders each month, whole cases and the same price on every order. It does not carry excess stock into later months, calculate taxes, check availability or include unentered charges. Buyer-paid broker fees belong in “Other buyer-paid fees”; a supplier-paid commission should not be added again unless it is an extra buyer charge.

Keep the comparison fair.
Arizona Supply Brokers can contact suppliers and work through this comparison for your business. You don’t need to gather every number before asking for help.
How do I compare suppliers with different case quantities?
Divide the complete delivered cost by the number of usable units. This calculator also rounds each order up to whole cases and includes any case minimum, so you can see excess units and the monthly cash requirement.
Does this calculate Arizona sales tax?
No. Enter the tax amount for each order from the supplier offer. Tax treatment can depend on the products, location and transaction. An unknown tax amount leaves the comparison incomplete.
Can I compare a cup price with a cup-and-lid price?
Only after putting both offers on the same basis. Use complete cup-and-lid sets as the unit, include all components and confirm product compatibility.
Are the example numbers real supplier quotes?
No. The optional example is fictional and demonstrates the arithmetic. Request supplier sourcing help for offers based on your actual products, quantities and delivery location.
