Is it possible to create an Android app which will be used to calculate the price?

[AC Question]

For example - We can determine values to different products

Say product A - 1000
product B - 1100

and there is another unit - Unit A which doesnt have a value yet.

To calculate we choose the product and then add value to Unit A which in the example is 10.

E.g - Product A * Unit A = 1000 * 10 = 10,000

And now this value will be multiplied by another unit which is "Exchange rate of $ in INR"

E.g - 10,000 * 64 = 6,40,000

This is the basic idea behind the app and I was wondering if it would be possible to make with minimal computer skills.

Hello. I don't think so.

Have a look at the Android Developers section on these forums. You can ask in the Developers Lounge.

Anything you can come up with a formula for can be done with an app (within reason - 100 digit numbers are normally outside the ability of a computer unless you write your own math library). So the only problem with your idea would be the exchange rate - since it changes by the minute, you'd need a site your app could use to determine the current rate (some ForEx sites will block you if you hit them too often and you aren't paying for the use of the site), or you'd have to use some approximate rate that you'd update the app with every week or so. The rest is arithmetic and a nice user interface.
