Black Angus cattle, also called Aberdeen Angus, are the most popular breed in the U.S., and thanks to some excellent marketing, their meat is in demand, which means these cattle -- and crossbreds with mostly black markings -- often bring a premium at the sale barn.
And, unfortunately, while basic economics escapes some decision makers at the highest levels, the reality is that as costs double, prices to consumers will likely double as a result. Informal surveys inside the industry put the average cost per pound of freon in 2012 at a range of $75 â $125. With that price doubling and many refrigerant leaks requiring as much as 3-4 pounds, you are getting into a price that should prompt you to consider replacement of your air conditioning system.
Cost Per Pound Rebar is not normally sold by the pound at hardware stores, and industrial applications tend to go by the ton. However, a typical stick 1 foot long by 1/2 diameter weighs about .67 pounds or 2/3 pounds. At an average price of $0.75 per foot, that comes out to about $1.12 a pound in single sticks. However, quantity and size affect the end price. By the truckload, rebar costs between $0.60 and $0.80 per pound.
