Description of Yield Costing (made simple)

This app provides a simple solution for catering and hospitality professionals to calculate accurate cost prices for ingredients and recipes, taking into account raw wastage and cooking loss.
The user selects or inputs:
1. A currency (i.e. GBP)
2. RAW WASTAGE or COOKING LOSS
3. Ingredient or product name
4. Supplier purchase (cost) price of ingredient or product name
5. Gross weight/measure before preparation or cooking
6. Wastage weight/measure after preparation or cooking
7. Amount of raw or cooked ingredient used in a recipe
The app will calculate true costs associated with these food items. In this way, accurate prices for ingredients and recipes can be calculated.
For example: the app will calculate the true price of an alcoholic reduction; calculate the true cost of a 60g portion of prepared broccoli; or calculate the financial effect of cooking loss on pork belly when portioning the cooked food by weight.
Multi-functional, this app provides accurate prices in an instant for chefs on the go, featuring US, UK and Metric weights and measures. These are divided into 3 categories: Mass & Weight; Liquid Volume; Dry Volume. Notably, the user can convert between weights and measures within each category. On a very practical level, this app aids in developing sensible pricing strategies for caterers and hospitality professionals.

    The true cost of ingredient used in recipe does not calculate correctly. The other calculations are fine.

    "Measure of Raw Ingredients BEFORE preparation?" I put in 1000 grams (why not kilograms?) "Measure of Raw Ingredients AFTER preparation?" I put in 850 grams. Net Result. Wastage given as 85%; Net Yield given as 15%. Figures are reversed. Therefore cost is incorrect also. A basic screw-up. Gonna fix it?? Thank you. Steven

    This is a really useful app that allows you to perform a range of advance calculations related to food. The interface is a bit complicated and it takes me a whiles to get use to it. It is all about the details and really helps!

    This app is really useful for a chef, restaurant owner or someone that is interested in keeping up with cooking ingredients loss or waste. It is very precise and includes many currencies around the world.
