Manufacturing and processing
In manufacturing the numbers live in the cost card: materials, yield, wastage, labour and the overhead each unit carries. When those are estimated rather than measured, pricing and inventory both drift away from what the plant actually does.
The questions that decide the numbers
What a manufacturing and processing business needs answered.
- 01What is the true cost per unit, by product and by line?
- 02How much stock is slow, obsolete or simply not where the books say?
- 03Does capacity utilisation cover the fixed base?
- 04Are depreciation and tax incentives claimed correctly?
Across trade & manufacturing
Margin here is decided before a single sale is made, in landed cost. Customs duty, freight, LC charges and the exchange rate on the day of payment all sit inside cost of goods, and most businesses price off invoice value instead. Add inventory financed on supplier credit and the result is familiar: profitable on paper, permanently short of cash. The work is usually product-level costing, then pricing and working capital built on top of it.
