Thursday cash game. .25/.50 and .5/1 spread. There's usually $2-3k in the room, 15-25 players. I'm thinking of $2 off the top for those who buy-in to the $40 game, $5 off the top of the $100 game. Additionally, anyone who leaves with more than $200 kicks in another $5. Anyone who moves up games pays the additional $3.

This seems way too complicated. Sounds like you've been running this game a long time. You know how much you spend on average for the food/drink, and you know how many players come to the game on average. From this point, it's simple math. If you spend on average $100 and you get on average 20 players, charge $5 a player and be done with it. Alternatively, charge the house fee on the way out the door: if this week you spent $120 and only 12 players showed, charge them $10 as they cash out.
