    I don’t know the answer but both options seem too low. So I’ll make my guess $1

    I ran a quick Google search to find out. The best answer Icould find was 96 cents.

    During the early days 100,000 bar. a day was not uncommon and during some price wars the price dropped to 3 cents a barrel. But I can’t find where it dropped to 1 cent.

    The correct answer is five cents.
