what is the profit margin on a pint
2006-10-01 23:33:29 · update #1
It varies greatly, depending on the type of beer and the price at which it's served, but it's always a significant margin. A sixteen gallon keg may cost anywhere from $60(US) to $150, depending on the type of beer and where you buy it. At an average price of around $90, each pint of beer costs the proprietor about $0.70. I don't know where you live, but where I am, a pint of beer can cost anywhere from $2.00 to $6.00. At an average price of $4.00, the markup is 571%.
Basically, all bar sales experience an extremely high margin, but a very low profit per sale. Thus, profit margin on sales is much less important for a bar than it is for most other businesses. Bars generally make money by keeping their sales volume high, not their markup.

The mark is used to indicate to wear the 'golden' beer line should be. Above that is space for the beer froth.
