Bouquet Costing

Bouquet Costing is an offline app (one HTML file in a zip) for a florist who prices bouquets by feel. You enter what you pay for a bunch, how many stems come in it and how many you lose. You build each bouquet as a recipe of stems. The app works out the cost of one bouquet, the price that reaches the margin you want after VAT, rounds it to a price you can quote, and tells you which bouquets are priced below target.

The problem it removes: Wholesale prices move, a bunch of twenty roses does not give twenty good stems, and the ribbon, water and time are never counted. So bouquets are priced by guess, and the busy days sell at a loss without anyone noticing. This app prices from the real cost of the stems you use and tells you how many bunches to order for the bouquets you plan to make.

What is inside:

• Stem and material list with bunch price, stems per bunch and the share you lose, giving the cost of one usable stem
• Bouquet recipes of stems and quantities, with labour minutes and an overhead percentage you set
• Cost of one bouquet, the price that reaches your target margin after VAT, rounded up to your price step, and the actual margin at the price you charge
• Peak pricing switch: raise all stem costs by the percentage you are being charged at the wholesale market
• Price change log on every stem and a list of bouquets that are now below target
• Planned bouquets turn into stems needed and bunches to order, less the bunches you already have
• Example data you can load in one click, a Start here guide and an Honest limits panel
• JSON backup and restore, CSV export, and CSV import with a check of every row before anything is added

Who it is for: owners of small flower shops, home florists and market stalls in the UAE who buy by the bunch, make hand bouquets and arrangements, and want to know whether each one earns its margin.

What it is NOT: It does not track stock day by day, does not read supplier invoices, does not know your real wastage unless you enter the share you lose, and does not set prices for you: the margin, labour rate, overhead and rounding are numbers you choose. VAT is a rate you enter. It is not tax or accounting advice. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it is not connected to any government system, bank or messaging service, and it does not file or send anything by itself. UAE e-invoicing is not part of it.

Verified by us: scripted tests in Chromium (148 checks through the real screens: adding, editing and deleting records in every table, required-field messages, backup then clear then restore, CSV export then import, keyboard order, print layouts rendered to PDF, no horizontal scrolling at 375 and 1280 pixels, no network requests) and an independent recalculation by a separately written Python evaluator of 1936 calculated values (25 randomised rows plus the example data) with 0 mismatches. Safari engine (WebKit): smoke test passed; Firefox: could not be launched. Not tested: Firefox beyond what is stated here, and no real printer was used (print layouts were checked as PDF).
