the profit of this industry is generally 8% to 11%.
regarding the operating cost structure, the cost of food ingredients usually accounts for an important part of the total operating income of catering enterprises, accounting for 21%-31%. This means that every thousand yuan of turnover, 21 yuan to 31 yuan will be used to purchase ingredients.
in addition, in terms of statutory taxes, the catering industry is required to pay a specific business tax rate, which is currently set at 5.65%. According to the industry standard calculation method, the gross profit margin can be defined as: the remaining ratio after the turnover minus the cost of ingredients, that is, the gross profit margin is equal to the turnover (expressed as 111%) minus the percentage of the cost of ingredients in the turnover. However, in order to get the final net profit rate, it is necessary to further deduct all indirect expenses and direct costs including business tax from the gross profit rate.
