Enter the total cost of all baking materials and the total number of cookies made into the calculator to determine the cost per cookie.

The following equation is used to calculate the Cookie Cost.

CC = TCM / C
  • Where CC is the total cost per cooking ($/cookie0
  • TCM is the total baking materials cost ($)
  • C is the number of cookies made

To calculate the cost of each cookie, divide the total baking materials cost by the number of good cookies made.

Definition:

The cost per cookie depends on the ingredients used, size of the cookie, and shape of the cookie.

Example Problem:

The following example outlines the steps and information needed to calculate Cookie Cost.

First, determine the total cost spent on all ingredients. In this example, the total cost of ingredients was $100.00.

Next, determine the number of cookies made. For this example, there were 200 cookies made.

Finally, calculate the cookie cost using the formula above:

CC = TCM / #C

CC = $100 / 200

CC = $.50 / cookie
