To answer this question accurately, you would need to say what country and state you live in. Also, the type of ground beef determines the cost as well. Ground beef that has a lower fat content is going to be more expensive than ground beef that has a higher fat content. Also, the cut of meat that is ground determines the price as well.
The density of ground beef is: 950 Kg/cubic meter To put that into a more useful volume (i.e., for cooking with ground beef), ground beef is approximately: 2 lbs/quart (1.98 lbs/1quart). See this web site for an answer. http://www.tian.cc/2005/03/weight-estimation.html
If each burrito is made with 2 ounces of beef then 600 ounces, or 37.5 lbs. of beef is needed. More is needed if more meat is used per burrito. Refried beans or frijole olla is often added as filler so less meat is used. I prefer lean shredded or chopped beef over ground beef, but that is your choice. (95/5 ground beef should work well, otherwise increase the amounts as the beef fat reduces the usable amount.)
250 grams = about 0.551 pounds.
Your question lacks detail to properly awnser... How big is the cow? are you making the whole freaking cow chuck or are you getting some steak and roasts out of the deal? Is this lean, extra lean, or have to wring it out to eat it? In either case a 1200 pound cow should yeld approx 450 - 500 pounds of beef. ground or otherwise..
400 quarter pounders can be made from 100 pounds of hamburg meat.

The average person consumes about 60 lbs of beef a year. By that math, it will take 360 lbs of meat. Dressing (the % an animal weight that is the bled carcass) is around 60%. Therefore, you can figure that a 1,250 lbs steer should yield 750 lbs. However, before you go in with someone on a carcass and each taking a side, remember that you are limited on cuts. Take a look at how much ground beef you want. That will be the first thing a butcher asks you.
