Costing and pricing for snack makers

Know your costs. Price with confidence.

Pricewise works out what a batch of your snack really costs, then prices every pack size so you keep the profit you want.

    Importing never replaces what you already have: anything that clashes is added as a separate copy. Keep exported files private; they contain your costs. Up to 100 costings.

    1Your product

    Give this costing a name you will recognise later, for example “Chinchin, October prices”.

    2What goes into one batch

    For each item, enter what you paid for the pack you bought, then how much ONE batch uses. You are only charged for the amount used, not the whole pack.

    Item 1

    What you bought

    How much one batch uses

    Cost in this batch—

    Weight (g, kg), volume (ml, litre, cup, spoon) and count (pieces) do not convert into each other, because we do not guess densities. Cups and spoons use 240 ml, 15 ml and 5 ml.

    3Time, running costs and equipment

    Your time and your workspace are real costs. Enter them here so they are shared fairly across your batches.

    Labour for one batch

    How do you want to enter your own labour?

    Your own time is not free.

    Monthly running costs (overhead)

    How do you want to enter overhead?

    Equipment wear

    How do you want to enter equipment?

    Equipment lasts for years, so its cost is spread evenly over its life, then shared across your batches. Leave empty to skip.

    A month of rent is not charged to one batch: monthly costs are divided across this many batches.

    4What one batch makes

    Weigh (or measure) the finished product after cooking, cooling and any waste. Use the usable amount you can actually sell.

    Measured in

    1 kg = 1000 g

    5Pack sizes and your plan

    List every size you sell. Each size gets its own recommended price. Then say how many of each you plan to make from this batch.

    Pack 1

    Pouch, label, box…

    Share of the selling price you keep.

    Planned: 0 g

    Rounding always goes up, so your margin is never lower than the target.
