How to Determine the Price of Gift BasketsIn Feburary 2016 27,

Account for materials costs. It is vital that you keep records of what you spend on inventory. Set up a spreadsheet on your computer, and enter every single expense that goes into making the baskets. These include: baskets, cellophane, bows, filling, tape, labels and the actual gift items you put into the baskets. Continue using the spreadsheet to enter the expenses in steps 2 through 4.
Enter your overhead costs when planning to price your gift baskets. If you make the baskets at home, include items such as your business telephone line, fax related costs, printer ink, paper, stamps, business cards and a portion of your utilities and rent or mortgage. If you have an actual store, include rent and utility expenses. And don’t forget to account for the mileage you put on your vehicle, especially if you offer delivery service.
Enter your labor expenses. Includes your own and any employees you have. It’s easy to know exactly what you are paying your employees, but owners sometimes neglect to account for their own labor. You want to be fair to yourself, so include a personal hourly wage when calculating labor costs.
Account for promotional costs. What are your advertising costs? What are you paying to be listed in the phone book? How much are you spending on web hosting? What about the cost of signs, flyers and table rentals at craft fairs?
Establish your “break even” point. Once you have calculated all of the above costs, you will know the minimum price you need to charge for each gift basket without losing money. A simple formula for this is to divide your total expenses by the number of baskets you have created.
Finally, decide what profit margin you will be satisfied with. This is the percentage over your break even cost that you will charge in order to see a profit. One useful formula is to triple your labor cost. For example, if labor comes to $12 per basket, you would sell each basket for $36. If this price represents 30 to 50 percent above break even, you’re gift basket pricing is on the right track.

How to Install VentIn Feburary 2016 03,

Select the location for the vent-free fireplace installation. Depending on the model you select, you may need to build an alcove for it, or you may need to purchase a mantel surround for the fireplace. Follow the recommendations on the packaging for required clearance space. Pick a location that is near an electrical outlet if the model you select needs electricity to run the thermostat.
Contact a licensed plumber to install the gas line into the designated location. With the fireplace on the premises, he can make sure he is installing the proper fittings on the gas line so you can complete the connections later.
Set the hearth in position. Pre-drill holes so you can attach it to the wall and floor following manufacturer’s directions and using screws supplied with the hearth.
Slide the fireplace into the hearth. Thread the end of the gas line through the opening in the back of the fireplace. Secure the fireplace to the hearth with screws from the assembly kit.
Attach the mantel surround, if you are using one, to the wall. Drill pilot holes into the wall to make it easier to attach the fasteners that come with the installation kit. Try to insert screws into studs wherever possible. If studs are not available, use additional anchors to hold screws firmly in the wall. Fasten the fireplace to the mantel surround using screws that come with the installation kit.
Set the fireplace logs in place inside the fireplace. Connect the gas line to the logs and turn on the gas to the fireplace. Mix up a small amount of soapy water. Wipe some of the water around the connection to look for air bubbles. If you see bubbles, tighten the connection one-quarter turn more or until you no longer see bubbles around the connection.
Thread the electrical cord from the fireplace logs out of the fireplace and along the outer edge of the mantel to the nearest electrical outlet. Plug in the logs.
Set the fireplace screen in place. Turn on the fireplace to ensure it is operational.
