Food cost percentage from stock movements. Using purchases instead of food actually used is the standard error, and it makes a month with a stock build look far worse than it was.
Also called: food cost percentage, restaurant cost of goods.
26.03% food cost: ₹8,85,000 of food against 34,00,000 of sales. That is at or below the usual target range. Each point of food cost is ₹34,000 in this period.
Food used is opening stock plus purchases less closing stock, with staff meals and comps taken out because they did not generate sales. Using purchases alone measures buying rather than consumption, so a delivery arriving on the last day of the month distorts the figure entirely. Twenty-eight to thirty-five percent is the usual target range, and each point is worth showing in money because a point sounds small and is not.
food used is a stock movement, not the purchase figureEach of these is asserted on every build. If a change to the engine ever moved one of these answers, the build would fail before the page could print it.
