BAROP.BA Option # 1 BEER Will list to LCD: Glasses per 1/2 Gross $ per 1/2 Net $ per 1/2 Gross $ for x number of 1/2 's Net $ for x number of 1/2 's Will open & list to Ram File BEER.DO the glass oz entered @ the price entered * the number of half barrels entered & the net $ realized. To utilize this program, we'll assume you want to know the difference, of changing from an 8 oz glass to a 7 oz glass or should you raise your prices? ex: you sell 20 halves a week; use a 8 oz glass & charge .45 per glass. Following prompts - enter appropiate data ("Size of Glass (oz)?" enter 8; etc - BEER.DO will then show '8 oz @ .45 glass * 20 halves = $1720' Run again - At prompt for "Size of Glass (oz)?" - this time enter 7, & the same data as for price, cost, etc. - BEER.DO will then show '7 oz @ .45 glass * 20 halves = $2040' If considering a price increase just enter the proper data - you will understand the program after a few trial runs. The program has no LPT output (RAM saver) as Shift/Print from text (BEER.DO) will print the formatted info. This procedure also used for "Whisky Compare" There are no provisions for the 'head' on a beer, as this is just a comparison - but remember - when considering (x) oz's for 'head' you must then consider (x) oz's for 'bartenders run-off'! It has been my expierence that these two variables will offset each other Option # 2 WHISKY Will list to LCD "Shots (portions per Btl)" Gross $ per Btl Net $ per Btl Gross $ for x num. of Btl's Net $ for x num of Btl's Will open & list to Ram File WHISKY.DO the portion (oz) served @ the price * number of Btl's = Net $ realized Again, a few trial runs & you will have it. Same LPT as BEER. *** SPECIAL NOTE *** Spelling of whisky / whiskey - Imported = whisky Domestic = whiskey Exception = Irish Whiskey Example = Seagrams 7 = whiskey (USA) Seagrams VO = whisky (CAN) OK, go look at your VO & Sea. 7 bottles! I used the imported spelling because 6 letters = Ram file name. OPTION # 3 Will give you the price to charge for one hi-ball or cocktail per your desired bar cost or profit % desired. Just follow prompts, read explanations, & round up or down to determine selling price per drink. CKSUM = 185,822 Suggestions welcomed. Gene Nestro 72216,512
