CPC Formula:

CPC (Cost per Click) is the price you pay each time your ad is clicked (hopefully by a human user). Under the CPC model, you only pay when a user clicks on something. Ad impressions that do not result in a click are not charged in the CPC pricing model. CPC model is used by many ad exchanges including Google's AdSense.
Here is the formula:

CPC = Total cost/ Number of clicks

Unlike the CPM (cost per thousand), there is no need to multiply or divide the result by a thousand in this model.

If you need to work out the total cost from a known CPC rate and the number of clicks you are aiming to get, use the following formula:

Total cost = CPC x Number of clicks

To work out the number of clicks from the known CPC pricing and the total cost you are willing to pay, use the below formula:

Number of clicks = Total cost/ CPC
