Margin ideas and What if
Your next best change, in pounds per week.
Every week Quokka looks for money you could keep: a price that's slipped below target, an extra that costs more than you charge, stock that's going missing, or a bake you keep binning. It lists them biggest first, and What if lets you try a change before you make it.

How it works
Biggest first
Every idea has a figure in pounds per week, so you start with what matters most. The top three sit on Home as quick wins.
Prices, extras, stock and waste
Prices below target, extras that don't cover their cost, items going missing and bakes you keep binning.
Tick it off
Tell Quokka what you changed and see what you've found so far add up. Not for you? Put it aside.
Try a price first
Milk up 10%? Large lattes up 10p? Type it in and see every item's margin and your weekly profit change, extras like oat milk included.
The price that puts it back
Each item below its target shows the price that gets it back, and one tap sets prices to hit your targets.
Real sales mix
Weekly profit is worked out from what sold in the last four weeks, and you can allow for selling a few fewer after a price rise.

Questions
- Does it change anything by itself?
- No. It suggests and you decide. Prices on your till stay as they are until you change them.
- Where do the figures come from?
- Your last four weeks of sales, your recipes and supplier prices, your waste log and your stock counts.
- Are menu prices with or without VAT?
- You type menu prices as customers see them, with VAT. Margins are worked out ex VAT.
