Cost Control and the Menu—Determining
Selling Prices and Product Mix

OH 4-1
4-1
 Controlling Foodservice Costs
Chapter Learning Objectives
 Determine a selling price based on various
markup methods.
 Explain how market forces affect menu prices.
 Explain how the menu product mix is used to
determine the composite food cost of a menu.
 Explain how the menu helps with
food cost control.
OH 4-2
Menu Prices
 If they are too high;
Sales suffer
 If they are too low;
Profits suffer
OH 4-3
Menu Prices Should
 Be directly related to costs
 Help predict profitability
 Serve as a cost control tool
 Reflect realistic markups (the difference
between a menu item’s cost and selling price)
OH 4-4

as Budget Standard
OH 4-5
Industry Standards
 Restaurants typically run in the low to mid 30%
 Italian - ~ 28%
 Multi Unit - ~ 32%
 American/Regional - ~35%
 Steak - ~ 40%
 Prime Cost = 65% (some industry professionals
like to see this nearer to 55%)
OH 4-6
Menu Pricing Methods
 The Texas Restaurant Association (TRA)
Markup Method
 The Factor Method
 The Markup on Cost Method
OH 4-7
The Texas Restaurant Association (TRA)
Markup Method
Step 1 – Add target percentage values for labor, all
other expenses (except food), and profit.
Example
Labor
All other expense (except food)
+
.25
.30
Profit
+
.10
Total
OH 4-8
.65
Markup Method continued
Step 2 – Subtract the total in Step 1 from 1.00.
Example
1.00
Total from Step 1
Divisor
OH 4-9
– 0.65
0.35
Step 3 – Divide the standard portion cost of the
item by the divisor to obtain the menu
selling price.
Menu item standard
portion cost
$4.10
OH 4-10
÷ Divisor = Menu selling price
÷
0.35
=
$11.71
The Texas Restaurant Association’s menu pricing formula
considers labor costs when determining selling prices.
OH 4-11
The Factor Method
 Determines menu prices based upon the
standard (target) food cost percentage
 Involves a two-step process
OH 4-12
The Factor Method continued
Step 1 – Calculate the appropriate factor using the
following formula.
OH 4-13
1.00

Step 2 – Calculate the menu price using the
following formula.

The Markup on Cost Method
 Is popular
 Is easy to use
To calculate menu prices, use the following
formula.

Market Forces Affect Selling Prices
Menu prices can be affected by a variety of external
forces, including
 Competition
 Price-value relationship
 Mark-Up Differentiation
OH 4-16
Markups Affect Selling Prices
 Different menu items
are typically marked up
by different amounts.
 In general, the lower
the menu item cost, the
higher the markup (and
the lower the food cost
percentage).
OH 4-17
Menu Product Mix Is Important
 Restaurants must achieve their standard
(targeted) food cost percentage.
 If a restaurant exceeds its food cost standard,
profits will likely decline.
 Menu items sell at a variety of cost percentages.
OH 4-18
Menu Product Mix Is Important continued
 The average food cost percentage is determined
by menu mix.
 Menu mix significantly determines a restaurant’s
food cost percentage target.
OH 4-19

Menu Product Mix
 It is not possible to add unweighted unit costs to
determine average unit costs.
 It is not possible to add unweighted food cost
percentages.
 A menu product mix spreadsheet helps
determine the total (weighted) food cost
percentage.
OH 4-22
Menu Product Mix Spreadsheet
 Lists the names of all menu items sold
 Lists the number of times each item has sold
 Identifies the unit item cost of each item
OH 4-23
Menu Product Mix Spreadsheet continued
 Lists each menu item’s selling price
 Identifies the total cost of each item
(number sold x item cost)
 Lists the total sales achieved by each item
(number sold x selling price)
OH 4-24
Menu Product Mix continued
 The items that guests
select have a
significant impact on
a restaurant’s
weighted food cost
percentage.
 Menu Item Popularity
Index is critical
information
OH 4-25
Menu Item Popularity Index
 Ratio of portions sold for a given menu item to
total portion sales for all menu items
 Key element in forecasting sales
 Critical in menu evaluation
Popularity Index = Portion sales for item x 100

Other Menu Analysis Methods
 Miller Matrix
 Same process but evaluate food cost and popularity
 Weighted food cost is factor
 Winners (similar to stars) = low food cost, high popularity
 Goal to achieve sales mix with 60% of items in low food
cost category
 Cost Margin Analysis
 Combination of Miller Matix and Contribution Analysis
 Methodology includes evaluation of popularity,
contribution margin and food cost
 Primes (similar to stars) = low cost, high contribution
OH 4-35
Menu Management Decisions
 Must consider more than just sales dollars, item
popularity, and contribution margins
 Preparation and service costs
 Restaurant’s image
 Customers’ expectations
OH 4-36
The Pareto Principle
 A few of the top selling menu items account for
a large majority of sales in a category.
 Removing the two or three least popular items in
a category will not likely reduce the total sales of
items in the category.
OH 4-37
Monitoring Menu-Related Concerns
 Three factors must be considered and
compared when analyzing food cost efficiency.
 Standard food cost percentage
 Composite food cost percentage
 Actual food cost percentage
