Formula and methodology
Formula: Required edible mass = guests×edible serving×(1+leftovers/100); purchase mass = required edible mass/edible fraction; pounds = kilograms×2.2046226218.
The page separates the food that guests are expected to eat from the purchased ham mass. The edible fraction is visible because bone, rind, trimming, and preparation vary by product; the leftovers allowance is also a planning choice rather than a universal serving law.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Guests — people; minimum 1; maximum 1000000
- Edible serving per guest — g/person; minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 100000
- Edible fraction of purchased ham — minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1
- Leftovers allowance — %; minimum 0; maximum 1000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Guests | 10 |
| Edible serving per guest | 180 |
| Edible fraction of purchased ham | 0.7 |
| Leftovers allowance | 15 |
The edible target is 2.07 kg; at a 70% edible fraction, purchase about 2.957 kg, or 6.52 lb.
Assumptions and limits
- The edible serving is a planning mass per guest and the leftover allowance is applied to that edible target.
- Edible fraction includes the visitor's chosen bone, rind, trimming, and yield assumption for the ham product.
- Cooking loss, menu sides, appetite, storage, food safety, and dietary needs are not modeled.
- This is a quantity estimate, not a recommendation about serving size or a substitute for product instructions.
