- Value_addition_based_pricing abstract "Presently most of companies (especially in manufacturing) have total cost (TC) based pricing method. It is same age-old formula, which puts margin or markup on TC. For example, Price (P) = TC / (1- M) where M is margin percentage)[1]TC can be divided into 2 components: - raw material (RM) and - value addition (VA), which also includes all overheadsabsolute Margin (M) = P - TC or in other words margin is premium over total costs which we are charging to our customer for adding value to raw material.Before going further lets have few facts, objectives and assumptions;Fact: Every company has fixed manufacturing capacity Company objective: To maximise profit Assumption: Company faces infinite demand for its productsNow problem with TC based pricing is it does not tell us how to differentiate between 2 orders. For e.g. Lets assume that a company is producing two products A & B, Product RM VA TC M P Absolute margin A 10 40 50 50% 100 50 B 40 10 50 50% 100 50From above table, if a company is facing A & B orders, it may consider both orders equally profitable. If criteria is margin percentage or even if absolute margin, both orders fare equally.But are they so? Consider margin per VA, (money earned on work done) for both products, for A it is 1.25 while for B it is 5. In above method, VA for first part is 300% more than in second part and still company is charging same margin. In simpler words, A spends 4 days in manufacturing, eats-up resources and generates same amount of money as that of B, which spends only 1 day in company (assuming 10 VA is equal to one day).From company’s point of view, it would like to have more of B as with fixed capacity it will be able to do more no. of projects (=100/10= 10 B type orders) and hence total profit will be (50 x 10 = Rs. 500 for 100% utilization)But if it is stuck up with A type orders, it can do only (=100/40 = 2.5 no. of orders). In this situation it will earn net profit of (50 x 2.5 = Rs. 125 for 100% utilization).From Customer’s point of view, assuming he is making rational choice; he would like to place those orders with us for which we are providing more value for less money. So based on present pricing method, he will have more tendency to place A type orders with us. Also in cases of multiple part no. in same RFQ, he can choose to give us those parts for which we are adding more value for less money.Doubt 2: Why do we need to change margins depending upon complexity/easiness of order and big/small size of order?1) Complexity/easiness of order: - Before giving this logic, one would like to raise simple question,For a processing department, which one is more costly?a) an hour of work for a simple order orb) an hour of work for a highly complex orderWell answer is both are same. It is because whether simple or complex, we are comparing one hour of job.So parameter for comparing complexity of job is no. of hours taken. For a complex order, no. of hours taken will be more than simpler job and hence cost will go up. This fact gets accounted in cost estimation by coating department, so why do we need to put extra margin for complex job?2) big/small size of order: - First of all one needs to question basic assumption behind lower margins for higher orders. Common sense says that one needs to give benefit of lower costs to customer, if he gives us larger orders. Now what are these benefits consists of:a) less raw material priceb) less mnfg. Cost.c) overheads amortized over larger populationAnd one DOES pass on all these benefits to the customer!! All of these factors are covered in total cost. Sine glass cost is less and one is not taking any benefit of it and charging customer the same cost what we got from supplier. Due to learning curve effect, company is taking less time to produce same no. of objects and hence it is estimating less no. of hours for the job (again passing on the benefit of reduced process cost to customer). Overheads will be less because of larger base and again all overheads are passed to the customer. All in all, company passes all the benefits of mass production to customer even without thinking about it.On other hand company is still paying to production worker for his effort. Margin is premium charged on effort. So if one is still making same effort why should one ask fewer premiums for a job? One would rather do other jobs which are paying higher premium for an hour worked.Point is that by reducing margins for larger quantity orders companies are giving double benefit to customer and which need not be given (other than due to external factors like competition etc.)".
