When to use it

For an owner-made bouquet that needs a special purchase. The US example is in USD and assumes the quoted amount is collected in full, directly. Enter actual bunch sizes and usable stems rather than assuming every supplier sells the same pack.

Inputs

USD

Inputs Default
Bunches purchased 1
Bunch price 24
Inbound freight 5
Usable stems 10
Used stems 2
Waste stems 2
Other flowers 6
Wrap used 4
Owner labor 15
Delivery 6
Allocated overhead 4
Order incidentals 1
Cost markup (%) 50
Other purchase 14
Wrap purchase 10

Calculation method

Bunches × bunch price + inbound shipping gives the special purchase. Allocate it across confirmed usable stems, then charge used stems and estimated unusable leftovers, plus other flowers consumed. Add packaging consumed, owner labor, delivery, overhead and incidentals; apply a markup on cost and round the quote up to a cent. Cash payments instead include the whole purchases of flowers and packaging, delivery and incidentals. Quote minus these payments is the cash balance.

1 [Bunches purchased] × 24 [Bunch price] + 5 [Inbound freight] → Special purchase

Special purchase/10 [Usable stems] × (2 [Used stems] + 2 [Waste stems]) + 6 [Other flowers] → Flower cost

4 [Wrap used] + 15 [Owner labor] + 6 [Delivery] + 4 [Allocated overhead] + 1 [Order incidentals] → Other costs

ceil((Flower cost + Other costs) × (1 + 50 [Cost markup]%) × 100)/100 → Quote

Special purchase + 14 [Other purchase] + 10 [Wrap purchase] + Delivery + Order incidentals → Cash payments

Quote - Cash payments → Cash balance

Change one input

Halve only the bunch price. Both allocated flower cost and cash purchases fall, but by different amounts. Labor, other purchases and markup stay unchanged.

Result Default Changed
Special purchase 29 17
Flower cost 17.6 12.8
Other costs 30 30
Quote 71.4 64.2
Cash payments 60 48
Cash balance 11.4 16.2

Results are displayed to at most two decimal places; later formulas use unrounded values.

Scope and limits

  • Charge only expected unusable leftovers, not all remaining stock.
  • Quote rounds up to a cent; cash balance is not net profit.
  • Nonnegative inputs; whole bunches/stems; used + waste ≤ usable, usable > 0.

Usable stems cover the full special purchase; the canvas does not calculate how many bunches to buy. Other flowers and wrapping consumed are separate from the amounts paid to buy them. Owner labor and allocated overhead are costing entries, not extra cash payments here. Taxes, platform fees, discounts, refunds and paid staff are excluded. Markup on cost is not a profit margin. For a simpler consumption-based quote, see Bouquet Cost & Quote.
