Question 1
A guest orders a glass of Amontillado Sherry. The manager sets pour price using a 6-7x markup on cost-per-pour rather than a beverage cost percentage target. Why is this markup-multiple approach preferred for fortified wine?
A
Because unit cost analysis better reflects fortified wine's real economics than standard beverage cost percentage targets
B
Because fortified wine has a higher spoilage rate than still wine and needs a bigger safety margin
C
Because distributors require a fixed multiple to be applied to all fortified wine invoices
D
Because guests expect fortified wine to be priced identically to bottle-list markups
