Accounting Calculations
Labor Time = Cycle Time * Machine Labor Time Standard
Labor time is the product of the following
• Machine labor time standard (specified as a machine property). This value reflects the amount of time spent by machine operators in between machine cycles, including time performing maintenance and cleaning tasks as well as time pausing between tasks. The amount is expressed as a cycle time multiplier.
Labor Cost = (Labor Time / 3600) * Machine Labor Rate
Labor cost is a function of the following:
• Labor time (see formula above)
• Machine labor rate (specified by a machine property)
Direct Overhead Cost = (Labor Time / 3600) * Machine Overhead Rate
Direct overhead cost depends on the following:
• Labor time (see formula above)
• Machine overhead rate (specified as a machine property)
Amortized Batch Setup = (Machine Setup Time * (Machine Labor Rate + Direct Overhead Rate)) / Batch Size
Amortized batch setup cost depends on the following:
• Machine setup time (specified as a machine property)
• Machine labor rate (specified as a machine property)
• Direct overhead rate (see
Direct and Indirect Overhead)
Cycle Time Calculation
Cycle Time = Part Edge Perimeter + Machine Perimeter Allowance
Cycle time is the sum of the following:
• Part edge perimeter (sum of the perimeters of each GCD operated on)
• Machine perimeter allowance (time per unit length, specified as a machine property)
