Hello sir I hope you are fine I have one question about closing the cost gap
Company sells a 1 product for 3$ and earn 20% profit The supplier send the product in batch at selling price of 155$.supplier usually add 15% markup on cost… What is cost gap in UNITS ? Thanks
Because Target cost = Target sales price – Target profit Then the estimated costs of a product design can be compared with target cost. If the expected cost is higher than target cost then there is a ‘Cost Gap’.
It is the difference between what an organisation thinks it can currently make a product for, and what it needs to make it for, in order to make a required profit.
