Dear teachers:
People usually say a good thing has a high C/P value means that thing with a cheap price. Some people say that C/P value means cost/profit, but others people say it means capability/price. Which one is correct or both are correct?
Thanks for your help.
Best wishes,anubiss

I think it means cost measured against performance.

So it's which item delivers the best value, in terms of performance, for the cost.

Or to put it another way - which item is the best value for your money.
