Buyers Guide to Purchasing Terms
Capital: The amount invested in hospitality operation by its owners (CASH)
Theft: The act of unlawfully taking another’s property.
Pilferage: The act of stealing small quantities over a relatively long period of time.
Stock Out: The condition that arises when a product is no longer available in inventory.
![Page 3: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Storage of food items to control costs FIFO: method of storage to prevent
spoilage. Older stock is stacked on top so it will be used before previously delivered foods.
LIFO: Last in first out, goods that require absolute freshness will be used.
Proper temps in store rooms.
Limit access for employees; use a key system or only allow 1 person to access per shift.

Improper Product Quantities Create Problems
Do they have enough room?

Improper Product Quantities Create Problems
Excessive Quantities: Problems can arise when an excessive qty. is purchased.
Ties up capital that could be used for another purpose. Affects cash flow. Products in inventory must be paid before
they are used, the money can be used for another purpose. More space must be available to store products. There is an increased risk of product damage or destruction. Increased risk of pilferage & theft. Handling costs increase. Ex: Additional time is required to
conduct inventories and to perform storeroom cleaning duties.
Quality deterioration may occur with perishable products.
![Page 6: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Inadequate Quantities
Inadequate purchase quantities can create stock outs with the following problems:
Inability to meet production
requirements Need to revise production plans
to compensate for stock outs. Possibility of disappointed customers
who may visit a property to enjoy
a favorite item that is available.
![Page 7: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Safety LevelsConsider safety Levels: the amount of stock to be available on-
site inventory at all times. To ensure that products are available if supplier delivery
schedules are not maintained. To guard against production forecasting errors when
production volumes might be greater than planned. To allow for planning errors. To replace products that may be found to be unusable. To compensate for product theft or pilferage
All purchasers should attempt to attain the goal of having the right amount of inventory of each product available and the balance b/w too little and too much is an ongoing challenge.

Avoiding Loss
Managers can minimize inventory losses by:Installing proper locks.Prohibiting employee loitering near receiving
and storage areas.Ensuring that accounts are credited
properly.Clearly marking paid invoices as “PAID”.Comparing invoices with purchase orders.

Minimum Inventory to Keep on Hand
Guidelines to keep in mind:
Rule 1: The value of your food inventory should not exceed one week’s food cost.
Rule 2: Your inventory (food, beverage alcohol, and non-food supplies) should not exceed 1% of your annual sales revenue.
Rule 3: The food inventory should not exceed 1/3 of the monthly food cost.
![Page 10: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Inventory ControlSales Revenue:Beverage/Alcohol: $500,000Revenue+ Food Revenue $1,500,000Annual Sales Revenue: $ 2,000,000
Determine the weekly FC : 24%(.24)= $ 360,000 (1,500,000x.24)
Rule #1: Should not exceed 1 wk Food Cost.
Determine 1 wk of food cost. Food inventory should not exceed ? $ 6,923. (wk avg. FC= $360,000/52 wks)
Rule #2: Inventory should not exceed 1% of annual revenue.Total inventory of all goods in your property should not exceed ? $ 20,000 (2,000,000x.01)
Rule #3: The food inventory should not exceed 1/3 of monthly food cost.Your food inventory should be no more than? $ 10,000 ($360,000/ 12 months x 1/3 (.33)
Most chefs prefer #1. When you run a tight inventory, the food turns faster, there is less spoilage and less waste.
![Page 11: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Quantities for Immediate UsePerishable food products:
fresh produce, bakery and dairy items must be purchased in small qty.
Less perishable products: frozen foods, dry storage, packaging supplies can be stored for
a longer time.
Example: Assume the purchaser determines that 8 cases of butter is needed (36 ea.) = 288lb will be needed during the 3 days for which an order is being placed & there are 1.5 cases available in storage. How much do we need to order?
8 cases - 1.5 cases = 6.5 casesQty Needed Qty On Hand Qty to Purchase
![Page 12: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Ordering Terminology Approved Supplier List: Is a list of companies
eligible to receive payment from your restaurant/establishment, pertains only to vendors.
Order Record: save copies of ordering documents either printed or digital.
Kickback: is an illegal rebate. It is an illegal gift given by a vendor to someone if he or she is will help defraud the restaurant. Ex: most typical is where a buyer agrees
to pay an as purchased price for a product, but agrees to select a lower quality and pay the same price.
![Page 13: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Calculating Product UsageStep 1 – Calculate customer forecast
Customer count last period + (Customer count last period x % increase expected)
Customer count forecast for this period
Step 2 – Calculate popularity index of the items
Number of customers choosing a specific entrée
÷
Total entrées sold = Popularity index of specific entrée
![Page 14: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Calculate Product Usage
Customer count forecast for period
x Popularity index for item
= Forecast product usage
5,200 x .20% = 5,304
5,304 customers x 0.41 = 2,175 people
Step 3 – Calculate supply needed
![Page 15: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Ordering Procedures
Reciprocal buying: “I’ll buy from you if you buy from me.” The best you can do is break even.
Direct Bartering or Trade outs: see if they belong to a barter group. Ex: you can trade free meals for retail cost of goods.
Credit Terms: 30day, 60, 90 day or COD, Payment in advance.
Cost-plus buying: purchase price is equal to the purveyors co.st plus profit mark up
![Page 16: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Maintaining Inventory: 2 Types Physical Inventory: Requires managers
for employees to count all the items by hand. (Daily, weekly or monthly)
Perpetual Inventory: Maintained through stock record cards that document deliveries and issues by date. Bin cards are often used to record name, type of item, deliver dates, and issues or computer UPC codes.
![Page 17: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
ABC Rule An establishment categorizes each food
item into 1 of 3 categories:
A Very important: must be counted on daily basis.
B Important: Counted on inventory day.
C Not important and cheap: eyeballed on inventory day.
Count: means how many are on the shelves. Eyeball: means look & estimate how much is left in the package. Note: Each ABC category will have its own inventory sheet and totals.
![Page 18: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Inventory Control It is not critical that the line between A, B, and C products be
drawn at any given point. A common guideline is:
Category A, top 20% of items Category B, next 30% of items Category C, next 50% of items
% of items in category A is small, the % of total monthly product cost the items account for is large.
% of items in category C is large, the total dollar value of product cost the items account for is small.
The ABC inventory system attempts to direct management’s attention to the areas where it is most needed, especially of high cost.
![Page 19: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Inventory Control
We can now determine both the food cost percentages by category and product usage ratios.
Category cost of Food SoldTotal Sales = Category Food Cost %
$77,520 0_ $228,000 = 34.0 %
![Page 20: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
First in First Out MethodThis method assumes that the first one in the storeroom is the
first one that goes out. Therefore at the end of the period, the last ones purchased are those that are left in inventory.
Determine each extension and total cost using this method.
By 4/31 the 10 gallons that are left cost how much?
Date Number of Cans
Price/Can Extension
4-29 6 $3.11 $ 18.66
4-22 4 $3.12 $ 12.48
Total 10 $ 31.14
![Page 21: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Actual Method With this method, as the cans are delivered, someone wrote
the date on the can. Then, when the inventory was taken, the counter marked down the dates on the count sheet.
Using the information from the count sheet invoices, the cost of the of the inventory is figured out. In this example, suppose the counter found peaches with the following dates:
Dates on Can
Number of cans
Price/can Extension
4-1 3 $ 2.58 $ 7.74
4-8 6 $ 2.60 $ 15.60
4-29 1 $ 3.11 $ 3.11
Total 10 $ 26.45
![Page 22: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cost of Food Sold (COFS) Calculation
Method Sales Beginning Inventory
+ Purchases
Ending Inventory
COGS Profit
FIFO $ 450 0 $ 132.54 $31.14 $101.40 $348.60
Actual $ 450 0 $ 132.54 $26.45 $106.09 $343.91
The chart shows the effect of the ending inventory on the COFS and profit. From the chart, you can see the higher the ending inventory, the lower the COFS and the higher the profit.
Purchases –Ending Inventory= COFSSales – COFS = Profit

Managing the Food Production Area Managing the food production process
(“back of the house” managers) entails control of the following five areas:- Waste- Overcooking- Overserving- Improper carryover utilization- Inappropriate make or buy decisions
![Page 24: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Managing Overcooking Increased cooking time or
temperature can cause product shrinkage that increases average portion cost.
To control loss due to overcooking, management must strictly enforce standardized recipe cooking times.
The difference between a portion cost of $4.00 and $4.71 may seem small, it is the control of this type of production issue that separates the good foodservice manager from the outstanding one.
![Page 25: Analyze your Operations](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56814ea5550346895dbc5231/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Determining Actual and Attainable Product Costs Yield test: is a procedure used for
computing your actual costs on a product that will experience weight or volume loss in preparation.
Waste %: is the percentage of product lost due to cooking, trimming, portioning or cleaning.
Waste % = Product Loss AP Weight
