"Generates a three-sheet Excel pricing workbook (XLSX) for pet grooming salons, mapping breed-and-coat-type combinations to service time, material cost, labor cost, overhead allocation, recommended retail price, and projected profit margin — tabs: Breed-Coat Catalog, Cost-Based Pricing Calculator, and Profit Margin Dashboard. The workbook recalculates every price instantly when the owner updates labor rate or overhead inputs. Use when setting or rebuilding a salon's price list, onboarding a new location, auditing prices after a wage or rent change, or recalibrating margins by breed and coat type."
