Other Direct Costs
Additional Direct Costs = Colorant Cost * Part Rough Mass / Final Yield
Additional direct costs are the product of the following:
• Colorant cost (default rate of 0, user-specified rate, or standard rate—see Additional User Inputs)
• Part rough mass (see Material Utilization, below)
• Final yield (see Yields)
Amortized Batch Setup = Startup Scrap Cost Per Part +
(Setup Time per Batch * (Labor Rate + Direct Overhead Rate)) / Batch Size
Amortized batch setup, setup cost per part, depends on the following:
• Startup scrap cost per part (see formula below)
• Setup time per batch (specified by a machine property)
• Labor rate (specified by the machine property Labor Rate)
• Direct overhead rate (see Direct and Indirect Overhead)
• Batch size (specified in the Production Scenario screen of the Cost Guide)
Startup Scrap Cost Per Part =
(Sum of Per Part Material, Labor, and Overhead Cost) * Number of Scrap Parts
Startup scrap cost per part is a function of the following:
• Per part material cost
• Labor cost (see Primary Direct Costs)
• Overhead cost (see Direct and Indirect Overhead)
• Number of scrap parts (see formula below)
Number of Scrap Parts = Default Scrap Time / Cycle Time
Number of scrap parts is the quotient of the following:
• Default scrap time (specified in a cost model variable, scrapTimeInMinutes_IM)
• Cycle time (see Times below)
Total Production Volume = Part Annual Volume * Part Production Life
Total production volume is the product of the following:
• Part annual volume (specified in the Production Info dialog)
• Part production life volume (specified in the Production Info dialog)
