A revised guide for maximizing profitability in foodservice operations
Professional foodservice managers face constant pressure to control costs while maintaining quality and profitability. Food and Beverage Cost Control provides hands-on tools and effective techniques to manage food, beverage, labor, and operational expenses. This eighth edition addresses the complete cycle of cost control, from purchasing and production to sales analysis and profit planning.
The book covers essential topics including sales forecasts, inventory management, production monitoring, pricing strategies, and income statement analysis. This edition includes a new feature in each chapter: “The Move to Off-Premise Dining,” that addresses those unique issues directly related to managing costs when offering guests products sold via drive-thru, pickup, or off-premise delivery.
It provides guidance on managing third-party delivery services and labor law compliance including anti-discrimination protections. Every chapter offers micro-case studies and examples.
The book includes:
- Complete coverage of four major cost areas with practical formulas, management forms, and tracking systems
- Updated guidance reflecting the 2022 FDA Food Code and post-pandemic operational changes
- Comprehensive pedagogical features including chapter outlines, learning outcomes, self-assessment tests, practice exercises, Excel spreadsheets, and web-based learning tools
- Revenue control systems and detailed recommendations for monitoring online review sites and responding professionally to negative guest feedback
Food and Beverage Cost Control is a leading textbook to teach hospitality and culinary students how to manage expenses. It’s an essential professional resource for foodservice managers seeking to implement the latest technologies and techniques to control costs and optimize profits in today’s increasingly competitive foodservice industry.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
