The pricing decision
A selling price should start with the whole picture.
When costs live in different places, it is easy to miss what one batch or order really takes. The workbook brings those pieces together so owners can compare costs with a target and a possible selling price.
Read the catering event pricing guideSee the unit cost
Use the batch quantity or yield to estimate what it costs to make one product or fulfill one order.
Compare the price
Check a selling price against your target margin, with markup and margin kept distinct.
Excel workbook built · Google Sheets pending
A workbook organized around how you actually price.
The Royal Pricing & Profit Calculator workbook follows the numbers from business settings and a sample scenario through price comparison and profit summary.
The Excel workbook has clearly marked inputs, protected formulas, dropdowns and error warnings. A Google Sheets copy still needs to be created and owner-tested.

Future additionCan I download the calculator now?
The Excel workbook is a $49 USD one-time purchase. Its download is released after server verification of payment, and no app account is required. The Google Sheets copy has not been created or owner-tested and has no shareable link.
Will it work in Excel and Google Sheets?
The Excel workbook is built. A matching Google Sheets copy has not been created or owner-tested, so compatibility between the formats is not yet verified.
How are markup and profit margin different?
Markup compares profit with cost. Margin compares profit with the selling price. The workbook labels them separately so a target margin is not mistaken for a markup.
Who is the first calculator for?
Caterers, bakers and food-preparation businesses that want to bring ingredient or material costs, labor, overhead and fees into one pricing decision.
