- The BFH ruled that a method for dividing a total price for multiple food and drink items in a combo meal is inappropriate if it results in a proportional sale price for one product that exceeds its individual sale price. In a case involving a fast-food restaurant, the BFH rejected the “Food-and-Paper” method, which allocates based on cost of goods, as it could lead to a calculated menu price for a high-cost product exceeding its individual sale price. This outcome does not reflect the economic reality of a discounted combo offer and is therefore not considered appropriate.
