RD Exam Equations Questions AndAnswers.
How to determine mEq: -
\(mg/Atomic Weight) x valence
NPU -
\(N in - N out) / N in
Nitrogen Balance -
\(protein intake/6.25) - (UUN + 4) or (UN + 2)
How to determine mgs when given mEq? -
\(mEq / valence) = x/Atomic Weight...Cross multiply and divide
RQ -
\CO2 expired / O2 consumed
How to determine Selling Price with Factor Pricing Method (Traditional or Markup
Method)? -
\1. Determine Markup Factor = 100/FC %
2. Determine Selling Price = markup factor x raw FC
If the food cost % is 30, and the raw food cost of the item is $.18, what is the selling
price using the factor method? -
\ans= $.59
100/30= 3.3 (markup factor) x .18= .59
if including hidden costs: 3.3 x (.18 + .018) = $.65
Selling Price with Hidden Costs -
\markup factor x (raw FC + 10% of raw FC)
Markup -
\Cost - Selling Price
How to determine selling price with prime cost method -
\1. determine prime cost = raw FC + Direct LC
2. determine price factor = 100 / (FC% + LC%)
3. determine Selling Price = prime cost x price factor
Determine the selling price using the prime cost method. Raw food: 1.80 labor: 5 min at
$12/hr raw food cost %: .333 Labor cost %: .467 -
\ans= $3.50
, raw food cost 1.80 + labor cost 1.00 = prime cost 2.80
Food cost % + labor cost %= 80% 100/80= 1.25 markup price factor
selling price = 2.80 x 1.25 = $3.50
Determining BEP in units: -
\fixed costs / (Sales - Variable costs)
determining BEP in sales volume -
\fixed costs / (1-(Variable Costs/Sales))
Determining Cost of Profit Pricing -
\1. Add up all costs as %
2. Find desired FC% = subtract total from 100%
3. determine Selling Price = Actual FC ($) / desired FC%
Fixed cost 25%
labor cost 35% Food cost $.78
Profit Cost 10%
__________
Total cost 70% -
\To find the targeted food cost %: 100% -70% = 30%
To find the selling price: .78 food cost/ .30 desired food cost % = selling price $2.60
Determining popularity Index (menu mix) -
\# servings of certain item / total # servings of all items that day = %
M T W TH F
broccoli 60 55 78 62 82
green beans 28 25 35 45 33
carrots 80 75 92 90 89
