Re: Question regarding FOB cost

Hello Sumit

Freight-on-Board (FOB) cost structures involve the production cost plus any
transport costs to the customers .
The production cost is fix and transport cost varies  depending upon the
distance of the standard route .
     I think you can use the entry EST_STD_ROUTE_COST (Estimated Standard
Route (fixed asset usage) Cost) of  entity
CostComponentType .

Thanks Awdesh for the reply.

You are 100% correct that FOB cost = Production cost + Transportation cost.
And I appreciate your efforts, But sorry to say that I am not agree.
As per your suggestion to use EST_STD_ROUTE_COST, it is dedicated for route /transportation cost only. we can't include production cost over here. That's why I was in favor to add new entry in same Entity.


Thanks And Regards
Sumit Pandit

My understanding of FOB is the shipping cost are the responsibility of
the buyer, from the shippers dock.
I checked a couple of definition from google and they bare this out.
so I would think these would have more todo with route segments.

Re: Question regarding FOB cost

BJ Freeman
guess it comes to interpretation
CIF:
Cost, insurance and freight, whereby the quoted price for physical
material includes all costs incurred in shipping the metal to the
customer’s location including insurance.

FOB / FOT
Free on board/Free on truck, whereby the quoted price for physical
material includes all costs incurred in getting the metal to and loaded
onto the means of transport.

Free On Board. A shipping term which indicates that the supplier pays
the shipping costs (and usually also the insurance costs) from the point
of manufacture to a specified destination, at which point the buyer
takes responsibility.

Free On Board (FOB)

term indicating delivery will be made on board or into a carrier by the
shipper without charge. The abbreviation FOB is followed by a shipping
point or destination. The invoice price includes delivery at seller's
expense and seller's risk to the specified location. For example, "FOB
our warehouse in Duluth, Minnesota," means to a buyer requesting New
York City delivery that the seller who might have its headquarters and
billing office in Chicago, will pay shipping costs from Duluth to New
York. Title usually passes from seller to buyer at the FOB point.

Re: Question regarding FOB cost

In reply to this post by Sumit Pandit-3
Thanks Jacques and BJ for your valuable suggestions.
From definition given by you I got that

FOB is not a single cost, it is a collective cost. Which includes :
FOB = Production Cost + transportation cost + insurance cost
So we can say that FOB is to total cost to the Manufacturer.

So according to this concept now we doesn't need to add a new entry in the entity " CostComponentType". When ever we need to represent FOB cost we just add production cost, transportation cost and insurance cost of product and represent it.


Let me correct if I am wrong.

Thanks And Regards
Sumit Pandit.

Re: Question regarding FOB cost

BJ Freeman
it can also include the Cost of product your selling.
so you buy a product from a wholesaler instead of manufacture.
FOB = Product price from suppler +markup +Transportation+insurance cost.

one change to yours
FOB = Production Cost + markup+ transportation cost + insurance cost

FOB calculations would need a destination for transportation cost and if
insurance is wanted

So I would think FOB would be part of the Shipment type in the
(purchase) order header

This would also then have a shipment section that the customer would pay
like in the example. not sure this part needs to be in the OTTB version.
any way I believe all the entities are there for this.
