You're trying to compare weight and volume. It doesn't really work properly. A pound is 16 ounces, and a cup is 8 fluid ounces, so you would expect a pound to be 2 cups. The problem is that the density of the sugar is a variable. If you pack the sugar into the measuring cup, it will weigh more, thereby coming out to more than a pound in weight.
A pound is a weight measure, not a volume measure. So you would just pour the powdered sugar into a container on a scale to come up to one pound (allowing for the container), or just buy/obtain a one-pound box.
