Parameters:
(1) volume of one container in mL

volume of alcohol in mL =
= (percent alcohol) * (volume per container in mL) * (number of containers in the group)
cost per mL of alcohol =
= (cost for the package) / (volume of alcohol in mL)
Limitations:
• There are other variables to consider such as quality, packaging, monetary exchane rate and convenience.
