How this works

Calculation

Your result

Batch machine cost
$20.00
Batch labor cost
$17.50
Total batch cost
$72.50
Batch selling price
$94.25
Selling price per part
$9.43

The quote handoff carries your inputs and assumptions. Only an explicit base cost is suggested as a quote cost; prices, rates and measurements remain planning notes.

Choose the tool and check the setup

Understand the cutting profile, material reference and equipment limits before applying the result.

Understand the result

Method & assumptions

Batch cost = quantity × (material + consumables + runtime minutes × machine cost rate ÷ 60 + labor minutes × labor rate ÷ 60) + setup minutes × labor rate ÷ 60. Selling price adds cost markup.

  • Enter costs rather than a selling rate that already includes profit. Machine cost rate should cover ownership and operating costs; do not duplicate them in consumables.
  • Labor is hands-on time and supervision you intend to charge. Setup is charged once as labor; include machine-occupied setup in runtime if applicable. Tax, shipping and sales-channel fees are separate.

Use this in your project

Continue with the next measurement or cost, then keep the assumptions with your quote.
