Monthly profit planner
Estimate what you earn after variable costs, how many sales cover fixed costs, and your expected monthly profit.
Estimate = (sale price − cost per sale) × monthly sales − monthly fixed costs. Before taxes and costs not entered.
How many sales hit your profit target?
Use the same sale price, cost per sale, and fixed costs above, then choose the monthly profit you want to reach.
Food cost calculator
See ingredient cost as a percentage of menu price and a reference price for a 30% food-cost target.
The 30% figure is a planning reference, not a recommendation. Your appropriate target depends on your business and total costs.
Marketing ROI calculator
Compare a campaign’s spend with the revenue you attribute to it.
Simple ROI = (attributed revenue − marketing spend) ÷ marketing spend. This does not subtract product, labor, tax, or other operating costs.
