Quote Price at 92% margin capture factor: a worked example in printed electronics & flexible hybrid electronics

Push margin capture factor up to 92% and the picture changes. This example computes every intermediate figure at that operating point. Use it when quote price in printed electronics and flexible hybrid electronics is being put through a printed electronics and flexible hybrid electronics weighted-cost review.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Order volume quoted: 100 units (unchanged)
  • Unit price basis rate: 45 $ / unit (unchanged)
  • Margin capture factor: 92 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 80)
  • Tooling and NRE fixed charge: 250 $ (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Quote Price cost = quantity × rate × capture factor + fixed cost) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 4,390 $ for weighted cost, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 43.9 $ / piece for per piece value.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 4,140 $ for captured value.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 250 $ for fixed adjustment.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where margin capture factor sits at 80% and the headline result is 3,850 $, this scenario comes in 14.03% above the baseline at 4,390 $.
  • It computes a total quote and a per-unit price from order volume, a unit rate, a margin/capture factor, and a fixed job charge. The value of this scenario is the size of the gap it exposes: that gap, priced out over a year, is the budget you can justify spending to close it.

Results at a glance

  • Weighted cost: 4,390 $ (headline result)
  • Per piece value: 43.9 $ / piece
  • Captured value: 4,140 $
  • Fixed adjustment: 250 $
