These are simply methods used by marketers to determine the cost effectiveness of a vehicle in comparison with other vehicles.
 
CPR = Cost of an advertisement / Number of times the adv. was viewed.
 
CPM = CPR * 1000
 
Example: Vehicle X offers 1,000,000 impressions for $5000, whereas Vehicle Y offers 500,000 impressions for $2600, which is more cost effective? (given both vehicles will reach the same target audience)
 
For vehicle X, ($5000 / 1,000,000) = $0.005 CPR = $5 CPM.
