The example Bill of Materials creates an order that combines test tubes, test tube caps, and a holding rack into one finished product. In addition to being a "recipe" of the ingredients and how to package the kit, the Bill of Materials also lists the units of labor and materials.
To determine the current cost to produce this particular BOM we would multiply the units of labor times the current labor rate published on the NowFactory website. In addition we would multiple the units of materials by the published rates.
The BOM lists:
6 Units of Material
25 Units of Labor
Added together this provides the total cost of production or what a client would pay for NowFactory to produce this BOM.
