Cost price - Distribution
Cimetech has developed a costing methodology for the distribution sector:
- This methodology recognizes the EBT ($ and %) for each product sold, by customer.
- This costing system is far superior to the concept of gross margin and GMROI, which have always been used in this environment.
- It is now possible to accurately determine the financial performance of each of the products distributed per customer.
- The company is therefore able to recognize the financial contribution of its products on its monthly and annual financial results.
