Total volume in physical printed sheets: 320 (strips) : 32 (share of sheet) = 10 l.

3. Calculation of the cost of publication by cost item

Total expenses, taking into account the accrual of the unified social tax (26%), for royalties and artistic design of the publication are (by agreement with the author and artist):

16,300 rub. (1000 rub. – for 1 autoliter of text) +1500 rub. (for the design of the cover and splash screens) + 4628 rub. (tax) = 22,428 rub.

According to the agreement with the printing house, the cost of 1 copy of the publication is 40 rubles.

Total per circulation: 40 rub. × 3000 copies = 12,000 rub.

Costs for paper and cardboard :

4. Analysis of publication design and costs

The publication in accordance with GOST 7.60-2003 "Publications. Main types. Terms and definitions" for its intended purpose refers to educational publications; This is a textbook that is intended for students studying in the specialty "Publishing and Editing", for industry workers, as well as for those interested in the problems of modern book publishing.

Since this publication is educational, in accordance with OST 29.62–86, 2 options for designing the typesetting stripes with a slight deviation were chosen for it: the width of the typesetting stripe is ¼ sq. less, which, firstly, is allowed according to OST, and, secondly, Due to the saturation of the publication with different types of text and its different design, increasing the side margins plays a favorable role: it makes it easier and less burdensome on the printed page.

The Times and Helvetica typefaces were chosen for typing, which is often practiced for publishing educational literature. The combination of these typefaces, belonging to different groups of fonts, complement each other and highlight (not sharply, but calmly) one text against the background of another. Font size –10 – acceptable according to SanPIN standards.

The layout is such that the beginning of the main parts of the text that carry the content - chapters - is located on the imposition pages. There are headers and footers: the left one is the title of the chapter, the right one is the title of the paragraph. The column numbers are set at the bottom of the page. The title of the chapter is separated from the paragraph by a graphic vignette. Additional typefaces in the text are highlighted with typesetting rulers.

The publication was released in hardcover No. 7 (one-piece composite cover). Two colors are used: black and red. The design is strict, but at the same time interesting and original: the combination and arrangement of font, drawing, publisher’s mark, color block.

The paper chosen for the text is offset No. 1 - this is high-quality paper and is recommended for educational literature; high-quality white coated paper was also chosen for binding.

The illustrations in the text are monochromatic, simple in the form of diagrams. There are tables.

The selected technical characteristics of the publication, elements of artistic and technical design comply with all standards and recommendations. Therefore, when reprinting, it is advisable to use the proposed characteristics. Changes in expenses by cost item are not recommended.

BOOKS

Product format

Number of pages

1 sheet = 2 pages

The price of any product depends on its initial cost, which is calculated using a special formula taking into account a number of costs.

The cost of a product refers to the amount that was spent on its production. It includes expended natural resources, raw materials, supplies, fuel, energy, transportation, wages to production workers and other costs.

Dear reader! Our articles talk about typical ways to resolve legal issues, but each case is unique.

If you want to know how to solve exactly your problem - contact the online consultant form on the right or call by phone.

It's fast and free!

Cost can be divided into the following types:

  1. Determining the full cost includes all costs, including commercial costs.
  2. The concept of marginal cost corresponds to the cost of one unit of production.

The cost of finished products is calculated taking into account the full volume of production costs and it can be:

  1. Workshop. Includes the costs of all stages of production.
  2. Production. It is calculated by adding shop floor and general plant costs.
  3. Full. This takes into account the costs not only of production, but also of transportation and sales.

The classification of cost is extensive; it can be divided into many types depending on the characteristics of production and methods of selling goods.

Calculation methods

There is no uniform methodology for calculating costs. Depending on the type of product, its production and many different factors, the cost of production can be calculated differently.

Most often, the following costs are taken into account in calculations:

  • manufacturer's business costs;
  • total production and sales costs;
  • costs for preparing documentation for the goods;
  • other costs required by law;

Costs should be taken into account in the reporting period corresponding to the time of production of the goods, and not the time of payment of all costs.

When calculating the price of a product, the cost is calculated. The calculation is based on the quantity of products produced (in meters, pieces, or, in case of one-time production, a hundred meters or pieces are taken as a unit of measurement).

Costing items should reflect all stages of production, for example:

  • cost of raw materials and supplies;
  • fuel and energy costs;
  • wages for production workers;
  • total costs for the production process:
  • expenses for the economic needs of the enterprise;
  • business expenses;
  • other costs;

All these factors are expressed in certain amounts, and taking them into account, a formula for calculating the cost is drawn up.

General view and explanation

As mentioned above, there is no single calculation formula; when calculating the cost of a particular product, various factors can be taken into account.

Here is a general formula for calculating the total cost:

  • PS = Total production costs + Costs of selling goods/costing unit;

The cost is calculated in order to:

  1. Evaluate profitability.
  2. Set the wholesale and retail price for the product.
  3. Assess the efficiency of resources used in production.
  4. Calculate the potential profit of the enterprise.

The production process also includes such types of costs as fixed and variable, which must be reflected in the cost of goods. Moreover, an enterprise has fixed costs even when it does not produce anything.

In general, the formula for calculating cost looks like this:

  • PS = (Total production costs + Costs of selling goods)/costing unit;
  • PS - total cost of production;

Total production costs- this is the total cost of raw materials, energy, wages and other expenses required by the production process.

Costs of selling goods- the amount spent on storage, transportation, documentation for the goods.

Costing unit- quantity of goods, expressed in pieces or meters.

Example of calculation using the formula

Using Excel

There are methods for calculating costs using tables in Excel. Let us give examples of calculations.

Option 1

In cases where the organization is not able to calculate the exact costs of production, an approximate calculation can be made. The planned quantity of goods and planned costs are entered into the table and division is performed. The resulting amount will be the cost unit.

Example 1:

Option 2

After the company has allocated the amount necessary to produce 1 unit of goods, it is necessary to calculate the cost by adding up the variable and fixed costs. The amount of variable costs depends on the quantity of products produced, while fixed costs do not change.

Example 2:

Reduction methods


Product cost reduction scheme

There are methods by which the cost of goods can be reduced. This can be done by conducting a detailed full cost analysis of all production costs. In this case, you can plan measures to reduce the price of the product and calculate its optimal value.

If the analysis is carried out qualitatively and taking into account all the factors necessary for an objective assessment, then there is every opportunity to adjust the production process.

According to experts, one of the most effective ways to reduce the cost of goods is to increase.

Labor productivity- this is the amount of work for a certain amount of labor input in a given period of time.

The following factors influence labor productivity:

  1. The level of qualifications of employees involved in the production of products. It is better to replace untrained employees with low qualifications with qualified specialists. This will reduce the number of production workers, and therefore the costs of paying wages, which also affect the cost of production.
  2. Production conditions and organization of the work process. At a manufacturing enterprise that is equipped with modern high-tech equipment, energy costs will be significantly lower than where outdated models of equipment are used. In addition, modern equipment will reduce the number of defects, and therefore the costs of raw materials in the manufacture of goods .

There is another way to reduce the cost of production - its essence is to cooperate and expand the specialization of the production enterprise. This will reduce the costs of administrative, management and other activities of the enterprise.

Such a measure as analysis, making the necessary changes and improving the ways of using the enterprise's fixed assets will also allow you to save on the production of goods.

It is also possible to revise the management structure, the staff of administrative and managerial employees in the direction of reducing their number. Since the costs of management activities of an enterprise also influence the cost of the product and are taken into account when calculating it, reducing staff and replacing quantity with quality will also lead to cost reduction and lower costs.

In conclusion, we can say that by applying the formula for calculating the cost and taking into account the result obtained, it is possible to objectively assess the profitability of production and the main performance indicators of the company.

The result of the calculations is an indicator of how efficiently the resources of the enterprise are used and what results are achieved by measures to improve production conditions and introduce new technologies.
