Your product names and data may differ, but the process to calculate margins is identical. Useful formulas: Contribution Margin($) = Price - (Material Cost + Labor Cost) Margin Percentage (%) = Contribution Margin/Price Calculating Margin Activity In the table below enter each product's price, material cost, and labor cost found in your report, and note whether or not a second shift was used Useful formulas: Contribution Margin($) = Price - (Material Cost + Labor Cost) Margin Percentage (%) = Contribution Margin/Price Calculating Margin Activity In the table below enter each product's price, material cost, and labor cost found in your report, and note whether or not a second shift was used (Y/N). Then, use the values you entered to calculate the Contribution Margin and the Margin Percentage.

This is useful for a company when making a decision about whether to go into production or not. In its simplest form, you can calculate Margin Potential as: Margin Potential = Maximum Price - Minimum Unit Costs Price Use the information table below to find the maximum price that customers deem acceptable. You can find this in the Customer Buying Criteria for each segment. Minimum Material Cost Calculate the minimum Material Cost per segment using the following equation and table below: Minimum Material Cost = [(Lowest Acceptable MTBF *0.30) / 1000] + Trailing Edge Position Cost Minimum Labor Cost Calculate the minimum Labor Cost for each segment. Assume a base labor cost of $11.20 ($11.20 is a rough estimate of labor cost used solely to illustrate the Margin Potential Concept). Minimum Labor Cost = [$11.20 - (1.12 * Automation Ratings Below)] + Customer Segment Information 1.12 Trailing Edge Material Cost Leading Edge Material Cost Lowest Acceptable MTBF Maximum Price Automation Level (out of 10) Traditional $3.80 $7.80 14,000 $30.00 8.0 Low End $1.00 $5.00 12,000 $25.00 10.0 High End $6.00 $10.00 20,000 $40.00 5.0 Performance $4.50 $8.50 22,000 $35.00 6.0 Size $4.50 $8.50 16,000 $35.00 6.0 Margin Potential Maximum Minimum Material Product Name Price Cost Traditional Cake 0 0 Low End Cedar 0 0 High End Cid Performance Coat Size Cure The Round 0 Capstone Courier Previous Minimum Labor Contribution Margin Contribution Margin Cost ($) (%) Next
