In this Filipino‑language instructional video, Lesley Pascual‑Bartolo addresses aspiring and growing food entrepreneurs who need to include gas expenses in their product costing. She begins by reflecting on the success of the Foodtrepreneurs Month series and thanks viewers for their feedback. She then explains that, beyond ingredient costs, gas (LPG) is a significant production expense that many overlook. While a technical approach would involve BTU, burner efficiency, and conversion factors, she offers a simple, practical method: 1) note the purchase price of the LPG cylinder, 2) determine the total minutes the gas is used over its refill period (e.g., 3 hours × 30 days = 5,400 minutes), and 3) divide the price by total minutes to obtain a cost per minute (₱600 ÷ 5,400 min ≈ ₱0.111/min). Multiplying this rate by the minutes required for a specific recipe yields the gas cost for that product (e.g., 30 min × ₱0.111 = ₱3.33). She urges viewers to incorporate this figure into their overall cost‑of‑production calculations. The video concludes with calls to like, share, subscribe, follow her Instagram, and join a closed Facebook group (Foodtrepreneurs Collective) for ongoing community support among food entrepreneurs.
