Most Common Important Task For Merchandiser

As we already know a little bit about garment and marketing. Before we are going to start briefly about apparel industry, there are lots of important task have to do, but few common important task needs to do for merchandise.

☼ Those common important tasks are - 

·    Fabric consumption calculation for garments 

(T-Shirt, Polo Shirt, Hoodie weatshirt & Knitted Trouser)

·    Sewing Thread consumption for garments product

·    Poly Bag calculation and costing

·    Carton consumption and costing

·    Button measurement calculation and costing for a Polo shirt

·    Gum Tape costing

·    Interlining Costing

·    Embroidery costing 

·    Print cost calculation

Above all topic will be discussed one by one. After completing topic, you will get the link of the topic. Now let’s discuss a little bit of the above topic. 

Why fabric consumption calculation? 

In the apparel industry, the main component of a garment is fabric. Fabric is one of the most important item in the garment industry. If any mistake happens in fabric consumption, then full order will be distrusted and company also loses their reputation in the marker. That’s why every garment Merchandiser has to be more careful at fabric consumption. 

Why need sewing thread consumption? 

As we know, sewing thread is the most common item in the apparel industry. Without sewing thread, can’t possible to make a complete ready-made garment. That’s why garment Merchandiser need to calculate sewing thread consumption carefully for a garment/body. Wrong sewing thread consumption for an order, it will reduce profit for an order. 

Why need poly bag consumption? 

In apparel industry, poly one of the most common item in garment. Poly bag used for product safety like insects, dust, etc. Sometime, poly bag used for chest print safety purpose. If poly bag does not use in chest print garments, then product can damage like - print removes from a specific spot. That’s why poly bag measurement and costing should be done carefully by garment Merchandiser. 

Why carton consumption is needed? 

As we know, carton is used for garment product safety purpose. Carton has determined by ply base. If we need strong carton, then we should choose 5 ply or 7 ply carton. Garments product depends on carton. So, garment Merchandiser should select correct carton for the export product. 

Why need to determine button measurement? 

In garments sector, button usability is huge for knit and woven garment product. Basically, when garment manufacture takes polo shirt order from buyer, merchandise need to determine correct button measurement for specific garment product. That’s why button measurement is one of the most important tasks for a Merchandiser. 

Why need to calculate embroidery costing? 

In garments industry, marketing manager or merchandise need to calculate correct embroidery costing for a garment. We know embroidery used to decorate or make it look good. If embroidery used in a simple kids’ T-shirt, then it looks more beautiful than regular T-shirt. The seller can create more attract than a regular T-shirt to the customer. That’s why as a garment Merchandiser, we need to do correct costing for a knitted embroidery T-shirt.

How to Calculate the CM of a Garments.

Calculate the CM of a Garments.

In apparel industry, cost of making (CM) is an important factor for garment merchandisers. As its importance in garments industry, every merchandiser should know the actual calculation method of it. Otherwise, factory may fall in huge loss.

Full abbreviation of CM is Cost of Manufacture. In garments industries, CM means cost of manufacturing for 12 garments.  We must focus in below information to calculate CM (cost of manufacturing)-

·         Total monthly expenditure (electricity bill, rent, water bill, transportation, commercial cost, worker & stuff wages etc.) of the factory. 

·         Total running machine of the following month

·         Total no of machine quantity to complete the layout of mentioned order items.

·         Daily (8 hours/day) production target of the mention order items (excluding alter & reject).

·         Total working days of the following month. 

·         Dollar conversation rate (if expenditure amount is rather then US dollar)

Suppose,

·         Total monthly factory expense- 70,00,000 BDT

·         Total running machine of the following month is - 180 machines

·         Total working days of the following month- 26 days 

·         Daily factory expense: 70,00,000 / 26 = 269,230.77 BDT (Formula: total month factory expenses / total working days of the following month)

·         Daily expense of 1 machine: 269,230.77 / 180 = 1495.73 BDT (Formula: daily factory expense / total running machine of the following month )

·         Total machine quantity to complete the layout - 18 machines

·         Daily cost of the mention order item's layout: 18 X 1495.73 = 26,923 BDT (Formula: machine quantity to complete layout X daily expenditure for 1 machine )

·         Hourly production quantity of following mention order layout - 200 pcs

·         Normal daily working hours- 8 hours

·         So, daily production of the following layout: 200 X 8 = 1600 pcs (Formula: hourly production of the layout X daily working hours )

·         Cost of Manufacture for 1 pcs: 26,923 / 1600 =  16.83 BDT (Formula: daily cost of the layout / daily production of the layout )

·         So, CM (Cost of Manufacture for 12 garments ): 16.83 X 12 = 202 BDT (Formula: manufacturing cost for 1 pcs X 12 )

·         Dollar conversion rate: 1USD = 78 BDT

·         So, CM (Cost of Manufacture for 12 garments ): 202 / 78 = US $2.5897

·         Need to add 20-25% profit. So, after 20% added:  $ 2.5897 + 0.5179 = 3.11 $ US

·         So, Final CM = $ 3.11 US 

 

CM (Cost of Making):

Formula: Overhead machine cost X require machine / production quantity × 12
             = [{ monthly factory expenditure of following month / (total working days of the month X total running machine of the following month) X (Number of machine to complete the layout / Production quantity of the following layout) }]
            = [{70,00,000 / (26 X 180) X 18) / 1800)}] X 12
            = [{1495.73 X 18 / 1800}]  X 12
            = 14.96 X 12
            = 179.49
            = $2.30 /dzn                   [ 1$ = 78 BDT]

Another Simple example of CM (Cost of Manufacture):

After starting the new salary of Bangladesh, we calculate the CM of any items consider the overhead sewing machine cost of 1200 BDT to 1400 BDT per day. For compliance factory we calculate per day overhead sewing machine cost of 1800 BDT to 2100 BDT.

Q. Suppose, A compliance factory per day overhead of sewing machine is 2100 BDT. Total machine quantity to complete the layout- 18 machines. Daily production comes from one existing layout- 1800 pcs. Dollar conversion rate is 1$ = 78 BDT. Now find out the CM for 12 pcs garments?

Solution:
CM cost = Overhead of sewing machine cost X total require machine to complete the layout / production quantity X 12
              = 2100 X 18 / 1800 X 12
              = 21 X 12
              = 252 BDT
              = $ 3.23 / dzn                         [ 1$ = 78 BDT ]

 =================================================================

Dear All,

My post for these people, whose are still confused regarding the CM (cost of making) of a knit items (garments). To find out the CM of a item you must need the following 06 (six) information at first, as listed below:


i. 

Monthly total expenditure of your factory with factory rent, commercial cost, electricity bill, water bill, transportation, repairing, worker & stuff wages etc. (8hrs/day) in Bangla taka. Suppose - 50,00,000/- tk

ii. 

Qty of running Machine of your factory of the following month (which total expenditure we have consider here). Suppose - 100 machines 

iii. 

Number of machine to complete the layout for the following Items (which CM we are calculating). Suppose - 25 machines 

IV. 

Production target/capacity of the following items, per hour from the existing layout, excluding alter & reject. Suppose - 200 pcs per hour 

V)

Total working day of the followings month,(though the house rent, commercial expenses, machine overhauling & some other cost remain same) Suppose- 26 days. 

VI.

If you want to calculate the CM in US$ (dollar) then pls input present dollar conversation rate BDT Tk. Suppose - $1 = 74 taka.


Now you should put the following information in the following form, which you will get here  http://cmcostofaknitgarments.blogspot.com/ 

Otherwise you may follow the below rule:


COST OF MAKING (CM) 

= {(Monthly total expenditure of the following factory / 26) / (Qty of running Machine of your factory of the following month) X (Number of machine to complete the layout)} / [{(Production capacity per hr from the existing layout, excluding alter & reject) X 8}] X 12 / (Dollar conversion rate)
= [{(50,00,000 / 26) / ( 100 ) X (25)} / {(200) X 8}] X 12 / 74

= [{192307.7 / (100) X (25) } / 1600] X 12 / 74 

= (48,076.9 / 1600) X 12 / 74

= 30.048 X 12 / 74

= 360.58 / 74

= $4.873 / dozen (this is the making cost (12 pcs) of the following items) 

However, normally at present (after starting the new salary scale)in Bangladesh we calculate the CM of any item consider the overhead sewing machine cost 1200 tk to 1400 tk/day that means $16.216 to $18.92/per day. 


Above is for a non-compliance factory. For the a compliance factory the per day machine cost will be 1800 tk to 2100 tk ( $24.32 to $28.37)


SO, if the an items produce 1600 pcs per day using 25 machines then the CM will be 

= Overhead machine cost X require machine / produce quantity X 12 / $74

= 1400 X 25 / 1600 X 12 / 74

= $3.547/DOZ
