Expenses Labor Total cost of labor employed in the establishment.
3
Expenses Overhead Controllable Expenses Food, Labor, Supplies Non Controllable Expenses Rent, Utilities, Advertising, Insurance
4
Expenses Food Cost To control Food cost, standards must be implemented Quality Quantity Portion size Yield The most important standards are the recipes
5
Standardizing Recipes Recipe Name ID number Portion Size Yield Ingredients Waste % Edible Product As Purchased Conversion Measure Ingredient cost Subtotal cost Q Factor Total Cost Additional Cost Food cost %
6
Portions The number of servings that one preparation of the recipe produces. Portions are needed to determine the portion cost For Example Recipe Cost = 12.90 Portions = 10 12.90 / 10 = $1.29 portion cost
7
Example A Recipe for Chicken Pot Pie makes 10 cups. A portion in considered 1 cup. How many portions are there? 10 / 1 = 10
8
Example SOUP Recipe Yield 2 gallons Serving size 8 oz How many Portions are there?
9
Yeild % EP/AP = Yield % Edible Portion / As Purchased = Yield %
10
Yield % Sample You can find yield % by performing a cut test. A 50# Bag of carrots is purchased After Peeling and dicing, 45# remains What is the Yield %?
11
Yield % 45/50 = 90%
12
Using Yield % Whole carrots cost $1.00 per pound. How much do peeled carrots cost? Take the original cost and divide by yield % to get the true cost. 1.00 /.90 = $1.11/lb
13
One more… Red snapper has a yield of 30%. Red Snapper fillets cost $12.99/lb and the whole fish cost 3.50/lb. How should you purchase your snapper?
14
How much should I buy? Ep/ap = yield% Ap = ep/yield %
15
Example A recipe calls for 5 lbs of diced pumpkin. Pumpkin has a yield of 60%. How much should you buy? 5 /.60 = 8.33 lbs
16
One More You have a banquet for 100 people. They will be eating roast beef and each guest will be an ½ lb or 8 oz portion. The only issue is, when you roast the beef, it shrinks 20% which means the yield is 80%. How much beef should you purchase?
17
Food Cost Expressed as a percentage Cost of food / sales price Cost of food = $2.00 Sales Price = $6.00 Food cost = 33%
18
Example Chicken Parm$9.99 8 oz chicken breast1.50 2 oz sauce.25 1 slice cheese.40 12 oz pasta.55 Fresh basil (garnish).05 What is the food cost???
19
Food Cost % BLT 2 pieces of bread.15 Bacon.60 Lettuce.25 Tomato.25 You would like a 30% food cost, how much can you sell the BLT for?
20
Determining Sales Price Desired food cost % Direct competition Labor intensity Demand (popularity)
21
Formulas to know YIELD % = EP / AP EP = Starting weight – waste AP = EP/Yield % Food cost % = cost of product / sales price Portion Cost = Total Cost of Recipe / servings
22
Portion Cost Example Clam Chowder costs $22.00 per gallon to make. There are 16 servings at 8 oz per serving. What is the cost of 1 serving?
23
Classwork / Homework Standardize your recipes – put them in easy to use formats Using the price sheet, fill out recipe cost form for all 6 recipes to determine sales price Create your menu Turn in all 13 pages next week
