Computerized Beverage Control Systems Beverage dispensing systems - Beverage portion control systems Liquor dispensing systems Restaurant alcoholic beverage recipe costing . Problems Problem 1 Several yield tests for roasting rounds of beef have been carefully undertaken. A summary of results (average per round) follows: As purchased (AP) Weight Servable Weight Cost (AP) = 22 lb 7 oz 17 lb 10 oz $6.95 per lb a. What is the cost per servable pound? b. Use the above information to determine the number of pounds of rounds to purchase for a weekend buffet being planned for 275 guests (six [EP-on the plate] ounces will be served to each guest). round #1 round #2 round #3 c. Use the above information to calculate a cost factor and then use the cost factor to determine the revised cost per servable pound when the AP price of the round rises to $7.45 per pound. d. Using the revised cost per servable pound, calculate the per portion cost for the six- ounce portion that will be provided on the buffet. Problem 2 A yield test is done on three beef rounds. The as-purchased (AP) and edible portion (EP) data is shown below: AP (Original) Weight EP (Servable) Weight 19 lb 12 oz 16 lb 2 oz 21 lb 13 oz 17 lb 15 oz 20 lb 9 oz 16 lb 14 oz

Expert Solution
Step 1
  1. According to the problem, the yield ratio is given by,

R=(Servable weight)/(original weight)…….(1)

For round 1 

Servable weight = 16 lb. and 2 oz. or 16 pounds and 2 ounces

Original weight = 19 lb. and 12 oz. or 19 pounds and 12 ounces

 

Hence, yield ratio for round 1,

R1=(Servable weight)/(original weight)=((16×16+2))/((19×16+12))=258/316=129/158

(As, 1 lb. or pound = 16 oz. or ounces)

Therefore, yield percentage,

129158×100%=81.64 %

Similarly, for round 2,

Servable weight = 17 lb. and 15 oz. or 17 pounds and 15 ounces

Original weight = 21 lb. and 13 oz. or 21 pounds and 13 ounces

 

Thus, yield ratio for round-2,

R2=(Servable weight)/(original weight)=((17×16+15))/((21×16+13))=287/349

Hence, yield percentage for round 2,

287349×100 %=82.23 %

Finally for round 3,

Servable weight = 16 lb. and 14 oz. or 16 pounds and 14 ounces

Original weight = 20 lb. and 9 oz. or 20 pounds and 9 ounces

 

The yield ratio for round-3 will be,

R3=(Servable weight)/(original weight)=((16×16+14))/((20×16+9))=270/329

Thus, yield percentage for round-3,

270329×100 %=82.067 %

 

  1. The percentage numbers in the above calculations represent the percentage amount of edible portion from the original purchased amount of each round.

For, round-1, the edible amount from the original is, 81.64 %

For, round-2, the edible amount from the purchased (AP) amount is, 82.23 %

For round-3, the edible portion from the purchased amount is, 82.067 %
