Transformers, Coils & Magnetics Manufacturing worked example

Quote Margin with quoted price per coil of 310 units: a worked example in transformers, coils & magnetics manufacturing

Push quoted price per coil up to 310 units and the picture changes. This example computes every intermediate figure at that operating point. Use it when quote margin in transformers, coils and magnetics manufacturing needs a clean margin number for a transformers, coils and magnetics manufacturing go / no-go review.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Quoted price per coil: 310 units (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 125)
  • Fully loaded cost per coil: 100 units (unchanged)
  • Price basis for margin percent: 100 units (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Quote Margin margin = available value - required value) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 210 % for margin, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 210 value for absolute margin.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 310 value for available amount.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 100 value for required amount.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where quoted price per coil sits at 125 units and the headline result is 25 %, this scenario comes in 740% above the baseline at 210 %.
  • It computes absolute margin as quoted price minus loaded cost, then expresses that margin as a percent of the reference basis you choose. 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

  • Margin: 210 % (headline result)
  • Absolute margin: 210 value
  • Available amount: 310 value
  • Required amount: 100 value
