What is the different between FOOD COST and PERIOD COST in restaurants and hotels accounting ?
Welcome to the cost of food where the real cost of food either the periodic cost is the sum of the real costs in addition to the costs related to food during the course fixed whether fixed or variable
Food cost relies on inventory. You calculate it as the inventory in hand (purchased inventory added to opening inventory, less closing inventory) divided by the sales of food.
On the other hand, Period Costs do not include inventory or fixed assets. Furthermore, as the name suggests, Period costs are reliant on time as opposed to sales and transactions.
