Where can I find the ingredient calculating spreadsheet that I have seen on mentioned on this site before. I need to figure out how to charge the bakery that is hiring to do there cakes. Yeah! I will be using their ingredients, but I wanted to see what my profit is on my own sales before I hear what they are charging.

here's the link to the pricing matrix -- an excel spreadsheet.

It's the very first post.

Be sure to click on the plain link at bottom of the post, not the blue box.

OK i may just be slow... but I do not understand how to use the matrix... i dont use box mix cakes. I dont understand the shopping list part. I am pretty sure I am supposed to change the groceries part to be my recipes (is this correct?) but then what happens to them? how do I get the information to transfer to the final page? how does it figure out how many hours i put in? is there a tutorial on it some where?? Please help! this is the second time Ive tried this! I may be going back to my simple people spreadsheet!
