Acres is a unit of area, and cubic yards is a unit of volume, so there is no direct conversion between them, it just depends on what you are trying to do.
If you can provide additional information on exactly what you are trying to do, I may be of more help.
1 acre = 43560 square feet Now, square feet are a unit of Area L x W Cubic feet are a unit of Volume L x W x H (height) Since an acre of land is just on the X Y axis/plane then it is simply 43,560 square feet. In order to get cubic feet, you'd have to have an H (height) or thickness of land/area. This is not possible on an X Y axis, but would be on a 3 dimensional plane consisting of X Y and Z axis. For example: X=5, Y=6 and Z=7 therefore the cubic feet would be 210. ( this does not account for conversion factors such as changing the X and Y and Z, if they were in meters, to feet). That would need to be done first. So, in conclusion, I would think you can determine square feet, but not cubic feet unless given a particular depth or H (height).
One is a volume the other an area, so there is no answer

If this is a homework question, the below is a very powerful and easy method to convert numbers from one unit to another.
Let us take an easy example.
Say you have 2.7 meters and you want to convert it to centimeters.
You know that 1m = 100 cm
Think about how we can take the equation 1m = 100 cm and divide both side by "1m" and get 1= 100 cm/m. (We have "re-arranged" the equation.)
Now think about how it is that if you multiply 2.7m by the number 1 you simply get 2.7m again.
Now think about how since "100 cm/m" equals 1 because 1= 100 cm/m you can multiply 2.7 m by "100 cm/m" and you will have the same distance. The only difference is that after you cancel out the meters the distance will be expressed in different units.
Here it is expresses mathematically...
2.7m = 2.7m X 1 = 2.7m X 100 cm/m = 270 cm. Notice how the meters cancel each other out and you are left with centimeters.
This always works
Here is a harder example.
Convert the speed 8,100 m/s to the units of km/hr
As discussed above since 1000m = 1 km, we will in this case divide both sides of the equation by "1000m" and get 1=(1/1000)km/m.
when we multiply by that and cancel out the meters, we get 8,100 m/s = 8.1 km/s.
(Note that we could have taken the equation 1000m = 1 km and divided both sides by "1km" to get 1 =1000m/km and then DIVIDED by 1000km/m and the meters would have still canceled out. Here is the math 8,100m/s = 8,100m/s / 1 = 8,100m/s / 1000m/km = 8.1 km/s )
Now to convert the seconds to hours we first convert the seconds to minutes by taking the equation 1min = 60s and dividing both sides by "1min" to get the equation 1 = 60s/min
When we multiply 8.1 km/s by the above we get 480 km/min
We do the same thing with the equation 1hr = 60 min to get 1 = 60 min/hr and when we multiply, we get 28,800 km/hr which is in the correct units.
For some reason it is not the law for physic teachers to tell their students about this method.
Here is website that goes into it in more detail.

None, since there can be no conversion. An acre is a measure of area in 2-dimensional space while a cubic foot is a measure of volume in 3-dimensional space. The two measure different characteristics and, according to the most basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at comparisons or conversions between the two are fundamentally flawed.
An acre is an area, a cubic yard is a volume, the question has no meaning

What is the formula for converting cubic yards to acre feet?
Multiply (acre-feet) by (1,613 and 1/3) to get (cubic yards). 3 acre-feet = 4,840 cubic yards. Multiply (cubic yards) by (0.00062) to get (acre-feet). 24,200 cubic yards = 15 acre-feet
How many cubic yards an acre?
An acre is an area, a cubic yard is a volume, the question has no meaning
If one acre is 4840 sq yards how many cubic yards of topsoil would a 5 acre site have if it was 9 in thickness?
1000000 cubic yards
How many cubic yards in an acre 3 inches deep?
Three acres three inches deep is 403.33 cubic yards.
How many cubic yards are in an acre 1 inch thick?
1 acre = 43,560 square feet1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet1 inch = 1/12 foot1 acre x 1 inch = (43,560 x 1/12) = 3,630 cubic feet = (3,630 / 27) = 134 and 4/9ths cubic yards
Cubic yards per acre?
An acre is a two dimensional measurement for land area, whereas a cubic yard is a three dimensional unit. There are 4840 square yards per acre, so in an acre plot with 1 yard depth, there would be 4840 cubic yards.
How do you find the cubic yards in an acre?
apples and oranges, cubic yards are a volume measurement i.e. 3D and acre is an area measurement, 2D, and would be measured in yards squared
How many cubic yards of dirt in 1 acre of land?
This is the worth math I've ever seen! 1 acre = 43,560 SF, take the square root of 43,560 to give you the base numbers of the acre = 208.71 feet for both the height and width of an acre to get square feet of an acre. Divide 208.71 / 3 = 69.57 yards for the height and width of the acre. Multiply 69.57 x 69.57 = 4,840 square yards in an acre. A cubic yard is simply 4,840 square yards dug down 3 feet or one yard. So one acre has 4,840 cubic yards of dirt if you only dig down 3 feet. If you dig down 6 feet that doubles and so on. One acre would have 48,400 cubic yards of dirt if you dug down 30 feet or 10 yards. Using a one cubic yard example if you removed one cubic yard of dirt from an acre you would have 4,480 cubic yards of dirt, and one cubic yard of dirt weighs approximately 1.3 tons so once cubic acre weighs 1.3 x 4,840 acres = 6,292 tons.
How do you convert acre feet of storage to cubic yards?
To convert acre-feet to cubic yards, you can use the conversion factor that 1 acre-foot is equal to 1613.26 cubic yards. Simply multiply the number of acre-feet by 1613.26 to obtain the equivalent volume in cubic yards.

How many yards in acre?
how many yards are in a acre ?the answer is easy it is 4840 yards .
How many cubic yards in an acre 20 yards deep?
You already have a square yard of topsoil, so how does 20 inches of depth get you the volume of topsoil? There are 36 inches in a yard, and you have 20 inches of topsoil depth that's 20/36ths of a yard of topsoil depth. That's 0.555... or about 0.56 yards. The volume of topsoil is 1 yard by 1 yard by 0.56 yards, or about 0.56 cubic yards of topsoil.
