Introducing the BookingNinja Cost & Margin Calculator

Introducing the BookingNinja Menu Item Costs Calculator!

Our calculator allows you to add ingredients, create recipes from the those ingredients, and assign those recipes to different categories, like "Main Courses," or "Cocktails"

Enter in the cost of each separate ingredient in whatever measurement you buy them in, assign them to each individual recipe, and we'll spit out the most important number of all:

🫰🏻How Much Money You're going To Make! 🫰🏻

We've had some basic calculators that we know are helpful for hospitality businesses on our website for quite some time -- but this is the first time we've promoted one to be a part of the actual BookingNinja app because of how helpful it can be for venues when starting out.

Why use an online food and drink revenue calculator?

With the rising cost of ingredients and the extra squeeze on food venues to maximise revenue per customer, this calculator can identify items that are costing too much and making too little from an individual ingredient level, all the way up to an entire menu category.

And it has a lot of advantages over doing this on a spreadsheet or paper, such as being able to easily edit a single line and update all recipes and being able to quickly move different recipes into categories to see the big picture.

Plus, as this food revenue calculator is now properly integrated into the BookingNinja platform, you can share it easily and invite your entire team to collaborate with you.

See Detailed Stats, Specify Serving Amounts and Add Allergies

And, like many things with BookingNinja, you can customise just about everything - set your own profit margin goals, determine or your own categories, and choose from a variety of different serving sizes to produce the most accurate results.

Plus you can also add all the allergies to each ingredient and generate a simple printable chart that can take a very long to produce manually (and even longer to edit when you change just a few menu items!)

We've tried to accommodate ass many different serving types as we can think of, but if there's other you'd like us to add, please let us know and we'll continue to improve the calculator.

There's no additional cost involved in using our calculator. You can add unlimited ingredients, recipes and categories to BookingNinja, and you can get started by signing up to our free account. If you're already signed up, you'll find the calculator in the "Sell" section of your main navigation bar from today.
