Consumption and Costing of Basic Woven Shirt

Fabric consumption formula:

….½ chest X (Body length + Sleeve length) X 2
= ………………………………………………………………… + 5% wastage
……………..6.45 X 36 X Fabric width

Let,

½ Chest = 60cm
Body length = 81cm
Sleeve length = 64cm
Width = 58

Here,
Body length = 81cm + 6cm (SA)
= 87cm

Sleeve length = 64cm + 6cm (SA)
= 70cm

½ Chest = 60cm
Width = 58-1=57

So,
……………………………………{60 X (87+70)} X 2
Consumption/ piece = ………………………………… + 5% wastage
………………………………………6.45X 57 X 36

=1.47 yds

Consumption / dozen = 1.47 X 12
= 17.64 yds

Here, fabric price = $ 1.60/yds
Fabric price / dozen = 1.60 X 17.64

Here,
Fabric price/ dozen …………………= $ 28.224
Per dozen CM cost ………………..= $ 5.5
Per dozen accessories cost ………= $5.0
Per dozen overhead cost …………= $1.8 (bank handling, carriage, forwarding)
Commission ………………………….= $3
————————————————————————————————-
Total FOB price……………………. = $43.524 (including commission)

Here, total FOB price ………………………..= $43.524
Per dozen sea freight ………………………….= $ 1.34
—————————————————————————————————
Total C&F price (Hamburg)/dozen ……….= $ 44.864

Again, total C&F price / dozen……………… = $ 44.864
Per dozen insurance cost ………………………= $ 1.3
