Implementation of an economic model to simulate manufacturing costs

Author

Summary, in English

An economic model describing manufacturing costs is implemented within the frame of a case study. The implemented economic model is developed to enable analyses of the cost items and parameters influencing the cost of a part or a batch and also to make simulations for the purpose of investigating the economic outcome of future development activities. The aim of the case study was to identify activities in a production unit that could lead lower manufacturing costs by using the method described in this paper.
