Cryogenic Storage & LNG Equipment worked example

Cryogenic Quote Margin with proposed cryogenic quote value of 310 $: a worked example

What does the result look like when proposed cryogenic quote value reaches 310 $? The full calculation is worked below with real intermediate numbers. Use it when cryogenic quote margin in cryogenic storage and lng equipment needs a clean margin number for a cryogenic storage and lng equipment go / no-go review.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Proposed cryogenic quote value: 310 $ (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 125)
  • Estimated quote cost: 100 $ (unchanged)
  • Quote value basis for margin: 100 $ (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Quote gross margin dollars = proposed cryogenic quote value − estimated quote cost) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 210 % for cryogenic quote margin, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 210 value for quote gross margin dollars.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 310 value for proposed quote value.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 100 value for estimated quote cost.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where proposed cryogenic quote value sits at 125 $ and the headline result is 25 %, this scenario comes in 740% above the baseline at 210 %.
  • A figure at this level is achievable when proposed cryogenic quote value is genuinely sustained, not just peaked for a shift. Gross margin excludes commissioning, escalation on long-lead cryogenic materials, performance warranty reserves, and freight risk, so the true retained profit at delivery is usually lower.
