- How do you calculate labor cost in a restaurant?
Divide your restaurant's labor cost by its annual revenue. For example, if the restaurant paid $300,000 a year to its employees and brought in $1,000,000 a year in sales, divide $300,000 by $1,000,000 to get 0.3. Multiply by 100. This final number is your restaurant's labor cost percentage.
