The Relationship Between the Price of Crude and the Price of Gasoline
A barrel of crude makes 42 gallons of gasoline. If the price of crude goes up $10, the price of gasoline will go up $0.24. $10/42 = $0.238
If the price of gasoline goes up faster than this, oil companies are exercising some market power and not just passing the increase on to consumers.
