How to use it
Enter the pack price and pack quantity for each ingredient, then how much you use in the recipe. Add packaging, labour time and other expenses. The tool calculates the real cost and a target price based on the margin you choose.
Target price formula
Target price = total cost ÷ (1 − desired margin). For example, a 30% margin means cost represents 70% of the final price.

Is margin the same as markup?
No. Margin is calculated from selling price; markup is calculated from cost. This tool uses margin.
