Is there a shopping/grocery app that does this?

Is there an app that quickly converts prices into quantity?

I would like something like this (very simple interface)
You enter:
1. Price (you enter $16)
2. Size (you enter 1 pound)
3. unit of measurement (you choose ounce)
it spits out:
$1 per oz

Or:
1. Price (you enter $16)
2. Size (you enter 1 pound)
3. unit of measurement (you choose pound)
then it says: $16 per pound

I know I can figure this out with a calculator in the store, but sometimes items are in different unit sizes, so I would love an app that allows me to choose the unit of measurement so I can easily compare prices/size

Thank you! (if there isn't and someone wants to create the app and sell it, just give me a small residual, lol)

Yes, they all do.

BUT - the reason I put #3 is because sometimes they dont show in the same measurement.

It might show the price per qt, but then another brand will show price per gallon.

I want a easy way to compare the 2 even though they are in different measurement units
