Know your COGS. Every single week.
Beans, milk, produce, packaging, see exactly what they are doing to your margin every week, inside a full bookkeeping service from $499 a month.
COGS drift is silent and expensive
No supplier calls to announce a price rise; it just appears on the next invoice. At annual-accounting speed you find the damage a year later. At weekly speed you catch it inside a fortnight, usually while there is still time to renegotiate, reprice or swap.
COGS tracking is built into the weekly engine:
- Payroll: award-aware wages, STP and super for baristas, kitchen and floor staff, run weekly.
- Accounts payable: roaster, dairy and produce invoices captured, coded and paid in one weekly run.
- Reconciliation: bank reconciled and invoices uploaded weekly, so the books match the till.
- Weekly P&L: sales, wage %, COGS and net profit on one page, in your inbox every week.
- BAS lodgement: monthly IAS and quarterly BAS lodged by a registered tax agent.
From invoice line to margin line
Because we capture and code every supplier invoice weekly, your cost of goods is computed from real purchases, not a POS theoretical. The weekly P&L shows COGS as a percentage of sales, so drift is visible at a glance.
When a supplier price moves against you, it shows in the numbers, and you hear about it while it is still one invoice, not a quarter of them.
COGS questions
How do you measure COGS weekly?
Every supplier invoice is captured and coded as it arrives, so weekly purchases are known precisely. The P&L reports cost of goods against the week's sales as a clean percentage.
Will you tell me when a supplier price jumps?
Movement shows up on your weekly P&L within days, not months, and material line-level jumps get flagged to you directly.
Is COGS tracking an add-on?
No. It is part of the weekly P&L that comes with every Roger package from $499 a month.
