IT varies....you should check current gold prices.

The karat weight is how much gold is in the alloy...1k gold would have almost no gold what-so-ever in it, so it would be incredibly cheap. 10k gold is cheaper than 14k gold, but it is more sturdy as pure gold is very soft (that's why miners used to bite gold to see if it was real).
So with 1k gold, you are talking about something that is mostly another metal and probably wouldn't even look like a gold (the other metal can vary from country to country)

Huh? The minimum you can buy in the U.S. is 10 karat gold (the absolute purest being 24 karats). The cost depends on how much of it you buy.

24 Karat Gold Jewelry, where 24 of the 24 parts are gold, 99.99% fine gold.
22 Karat Gold Jewelry, where 22 of the 24 parts are gold and 2 parts are one or more additional metals, making it 91.7% gold.
18 Karat Gold Jewelry, where 18 of the 24 parts are gold and 6 parts are one or more additional metals, making it 75% gold.
14 Karat Gold Jewelry, where 14 of the 24 parts are gold and 10 parts are one or more additional metals, making it 58.3% gold.
12 Karat Gold Jewelry, where 12 of the 24 parts are gold and 12 parts are one or more additional metals, making it 50% gold.
10 Karat Gold Jewelry, where 10 of the 24 parts are gold and 14 parts are one or more additional metals, making it 41.7% gold.

For any given weight of a gold piece, the value is the karat (carat) percentage of pure gold.
Example: if 1 oz. of pure gold was $100. then 1 oz. of 12 Karat gold would be $50.

no one answers your questions because you post them in the wrong section probably. I really have no idea how much a karat of gold costs.

EDIT: Post this in a section about jewelry or something.

Yea that is most def. an awkward situation but I mean me and my mom watch movies all the time I hate watching movies with my dad because he is a big perv and says things about woman that are very demeaning and I hate it. I am so glad I dont live at home anymore but not like my b/f is any better I actually feel uncomfortable watching sex scenes in front of him because I think he would rather fantasize about the woman and he tells me i'm fantasizing about the guy when that is not even true so its all messed up .

For gold, carats are a measure of purity, not of amount.

Pure gold is 24 carat. 18 carat gold is only 75% pure.

The price for pure gold is currently USD800 per ounce.

I have absolutely no idea. I don't like the look of gold. I'm more of a sterling silver person.

one karat gold? by the ounce would probably be super cheap, maybe five cents.
