French term or phrase: coût de revient
Une valorisation permet d’avoir un coût sur un produit et une fiche technique. Le coût de revient de la fiche technique permet ensuite d’estimer un prix de vente TTC d’un plat en fonction d’un ratio

(liquide ou solide) prédéfini.

La carte détaille pour chaque fiche technique :

- Le prix de vente TTC

- Le taux de TVA %

- Le prix de vente HT

- Le coût de revient

- La marge : c’est le prix de vente TTC moins le coût de revient

- Le coefficient

- Le ratio % : c’est le pourcentage du coût de revient par rapport au prix de vente TTC

 Permets de faire apparaitre tous les produits dans l’inventaire et de valoriser leur coût de revient

neutral  Tony M: The trouble is, just 'cost' fails to differentiate between the direct costs (which is really what 'coût de revient' refers to) and overheads (which are not usually taken into account at this level.
31 mins
  -> No, I wasn't differentiating; I was just referring to "costs" in general, much like "production cost", in PTeale's Answer given below.//Tony, if you know the answer, why don't you post it - especially as I don' see the difference between mine and PTeale's

neutral  Lorraine Dubuc: Vrai, cependant même si le produit n'a subi aucune transformation, sont coût plus manutention, transport et droits de douane sera son prix de revient.

neutral  Nikki Scott-Despaigne: In this specific context, "La marge : c’est le prix de vente TTC moins le coût de revient". The "c. de revient" thus includes more than the cost of producing the item, but also the ost of transport, packing etc. For this context, this falls short.
