Floral Recipe & Cost Tool
Overview
The Floral Recipe & Cost Tool includes two forms: the Floral Recipe & Cost form and the Arrangement Pricing & Profit form.
The Floral Recipe & Cost form allows you to create and save detailed floral recipes. This includes the subtotal stem count and cost of each flower, the total wholesale flower cost and the total stem count for entire the recipe.
You enter each particular flower or foliage and indicate whether you purchase them by stem or by bunch.
If you purchase the flower by Bunch, you need to indicate the number of flowers in the bunch, the cost of the bunch and how many of the flowers in the bunch are used in the recipe.
If you purchase the flower by Stem, you simply indicate the number of stems used in the recipe and the cost per stem.
You have the option to note the Flower Type (airy, disc, filler, focal etc.) for each flower used in the recipe. If a particular flower is no longer available, the Flower Type can help for finding a replacement flower.
The Arrangement Pricing & Profit form allows you to quickly calculate the retail price of the arrangement after you have completed the recipe. The Total Flower Cost (wholesale) from the Floral Recipe & Cost form is automaticlly transferred to the Arrangement Pricing & Profit form. You simply complete filling out the Arrangement Pricing & Profit form to calculate the Retail Price.
You can also easily apply a percent increase or decrease to the Total Flower Cost (wholesale) to account for expected price changes in the future or for last-minute flower substitutions.
