Estimate material, labour, energy, maintenance and reject-adjusted cost per saleable pack.
Enter cost per attempted pack plus hourly and annual production costs. The calculator converts output and reject assumptions into an indicative cost per good pack for comparing alternatives.
It accounts for saleable output rather than attempted cycles and therefore makes rejects and slow running visible.
Add depreciation or finance using the business appraisal method if the comparison requires it.
Include its actual material, labour and capacity effect rather than assuming all rejects are total losses.
Yes, when both cases use the same volume, quality and cost boundary.
