was happily working, when my router bit went zing..snap ..crackle and broke. I got to thinking how or do i add wear and tear to the selling price of pens.
To figure out selling price, some folks take the cost and muliply by 2 or 3. I know if i spend all day working on something i cant add a couple hundred dollars of labor to the project.
Some add a percentage for expenses, is this where its figured in?
Can i use something simple like everytime i have to work with a product add 10% or ??% to cover labor and ware?
Examples
buy a hunk of wood for 1.00, dont do anything to it resell it for 1.50
take same piece run it through saw, add 10 % resell for 1.65
cut again down to size sell for 1.80
drill a bunch of holes sell for 1.98.
using these figures it's comes out to two time cost.
Mabey add 10-15 % each time.
what do you think...thanks pete
