1.1 Introduction:
Costing is the most important aspect of any business organization. Both over
costing and under costing have equal and harmful impact on the organization
profit & loss and ultimate survival. An attempt has been made in this project work
to study the costing procedure adopted by Bangladeshi mills. Since costing is
highly secret matter therefore it was not possible to get adequate response from the
industry. However we have tried our best to gather information which are reported
in this project thesis.

Cost of woven fabric is the main concern of a garment merchandiser.
Reported Primary issue that affect costing of woven fabrics
i) Direct cost: Cost of raw material 66%. Cost of size and chemicals 4%.
Production cost comprising of running the machine, maintenance, power fuel,
humidification and other utilities 8 % and worker wages and salaries 8% losses
incurred due to shrinkage, wastage, grading, and also selling commissions.
ii) Indirect cost: Interest on investment, loan, working capital, depreciation, etc.
Above 7%, overheads and administrative expenses like traveling, telephone,
couriers, legal issues, taxes comprising of 7%.
Profit: 10 - 20% depending on the order size. In some companies, 70% of the
fabric cost will comprise of direct cost, but in corporate selling only 40% cost of
the fabric is direct cost and 60% is overheads.

2.2 Factors which affect the cost of woven fabrics.
Factors which are considered in calculating cost of woven fabrics.
2.2.1 Type of raw material
Raw material cost includes cost of fiber or yarn. The cost of the fiber will depend
largely on its generic type - cotton, linen, wool, silk, rayon, nylon, polyester,
polyester cotton blend etc, and also its quality. The Yarn cost will depend on the
count of the yarn, finer the yarn, more expensive it will be. Carded or combed:
Combed yarns are more expensive than carded yarns as yarn realization is only
about 70% incase of combed yarns because short fibers are removed where as in
case of carded, the yarn realization is about 88%. Combed yarns have more luster
and strength than carded yarns. All finer counts above 40s are generally combed
yarns. Method of spinning-open-end or ring spun. Open end yarns are cheaper as
the cost of manufacturing is less. It is used for coarser yarn count below 20s.
The cost of man-made spun yarns will depend on the fineness -finer the yarn,
more expensive it is. Number of fine filaments used in making the yarn will also
affect the cost. Bright or dull Bright yarns are more expensive than dull. Textured
yarns are more expensive than flat because of the additional process cost.
2.2.2 Amount of raw material or GSM of the fabric
Amount of raw material is reflected by the weight or GSM (grams/sq mt) of the
fabric. GSM is directly dependent on the EPI and PPI or construction of the fabric
and is inversely proportional to the count of the yarn. Relation between GSM and
cost is a little complex. For the same variety of the fabric, as the GSM increases
the cost increases.
But when the yarn becomes very fine and there is a variation in picks per inch in
the fabric, then the cost of spinning and weaving plays a more important role than
the GSM and even when the GSM is similar, the cost of voile fabric with finer
yarns and more picks per inch is more.
Weight of the fabric is the weight of warp and weft
which can be calculated by the formula below:
Weight of warp in grams/sq mt of fabric
Page no. 5
2.2.4 Production cost or cost of weaving process
It includes machine running cost, maintenance, labour cost, power & fuel, etc. The
weaving cost is affected by the beam size, if the beam is small in length, the cost
will be more as beam gaiting and knotting will add to the cost.
2.2.5 Mill-made or power loom made:
The quality of mill-made fabrics is better than power loom made fabrics in terms
of yarn quality; Therefore the cost of fabric is higher. At times it can be as high as
25%.. eg, the cost of 40s Poplin 92 x 88 can vary between $0.65/mt and $ 1/mt. It
depends on the type of loom whether power loom, rapier, air-jet, dobby or
jacquard and the weave and construction.
The weaving cost is expressed as paisa /pick/inch/sq mt. The cost of weaving is
different for different weaves. The cost of weaving for rapier loom for plain weave
40" width fabrics = 0.25 tk/pick/inch/sq mt which means that for a 120 inch width
fabric the cost will be 24 paisa/pick/mt.
For twill weave, the cost =0.4 tk/pick/inch/sq mt.
For satin weave, the cost = 0.4 tk/pick/inch/sq mt.
In case of P/V suiting, the cost ranges from 0.45 paisa/pick to 0.6tk/pick. For
1,000 m beam with dobby, the weaving cost is 0.51tk/pick and for 1,000 m beam
with jacquard is 0.6tk/pick.
For dobby, the cost = 0.3tk/pick/inch/sq mt.
For 2400 hook jacquard the cost = 1tk/pick/inch/sq mt.
For double beam fabrics like seer sucker, the cost is = 0.6tk/pick/inch/sq mt.
There is no standardization in dobby and jacquard fabrics. For yarn dyed stripes
and checks in loom the efficiency is affected by the number of colors in the weft
but mill-made stripes and checks are made on Sulzer loom in which the production
is not affected by the number of colors in the warp or weft.
2.2.6 Wastage and shrinkage
Wastage of 2 - 3% in warping and weaving and shrinkage of 1 - 1.5% from loom
to grey folding stage is included in the weaving cost. About 92% of the fabric
produced is sold as fresh. The value loss is about 7% while running cotton
material but is only 3% in using polyester yarn.
2.2.7 Dyeing costs :-
2.2.7.1 Cost of dyeing depends upon:
Length:
A minimum of 2,000 mt of fabric is accepted, if the quantity of the fabric is more
say 15,000 mt or 20,000 mt, then the processing charges will be lowered by 3-
4tk/mt.
Width of the fabric:
If the width of the fabric is doubled, the cost of the processing is not doubled. So it
is beneficial to go for wider width fabrics rather than fabrics with more length.
This is because the overheads and cost of running the material are dependent on
the length and not the width. Eg, the cost of dyeing 40" width poplin is 25tk, but
the cost of dyeing 120" width fabric is 50tk.
Page no. 6
Shade%:
Lighter the shade lower the cost. The amount of dye required is less as well as
time required for dyeing is less. Eg, for dyeing pastel shades if it takes 24 hours, it
takes 36 hours for dyeing black shades and burgundy colour.
Page no. 7
2.2.9 Shrinkage and wastage: It is important to note that wastage and shrinkage
are integral part of costing. Generally a minimum shrinkage of 5 - 7% is
acceptable. Below is a Table showing shrinkage of different fabrics:
Giovanni Cascelli, Salvatore Maietta & Eiufette Sigrisi has written a book on
weaving where they have contributed a chapter on costing which is discussed
below:
Page no. 8
Beside above mentioned technical data, the weaving mill knows some plant
management
Expenses, which are fixed expenses resulting from the projection of the expenses
of previous years
And from the forecasts for the works in progress or to be carried out nextly
or 5 years)
Let us calculate the cost per stroke which is necessary to depreciate the annual
expenses.
By cost per stroke we mean the multiplier in lire which permits to calculate the
cost per meter of our product. To facilitate the calculation, we consider it as
already multiplied by 100 in order to obtain values per meter.
2.3.2 First of all we calculate the density per centimeter of the fabric elements
on the basis of the weight
Per sq. m.:
130 g (weight/sq. m. of the fabric) / 2 (the elements are each 50%) = 65 g (weight
of warp and weft)
Ne = 0.59 x L / W, therefore L = Ne x W / 0.59 and, by replacing our values
L = 30 x 65 / 0.59 = 3,305 m (real warp or weft length in sq. m.)
3,305 10% (shrinkage) = 2,974.57 (visible length)
2,974.57 / 100 (centimeters in one meter) = 29.74 (density per centimeter)
Page no. 9
2.3.3 As both elements participate each with 50% to the fabric, the density we
calculated with this procedure applies also to the weft. We calculate then the
annual production in meters of the weaving mill:
2.3.4 Now we need to calculate the expenses which we have to bear in one
year. This datum results from the sum of the expenses:
130 g (weight per sq. m. of the fabric) x 2.48 (finished width in m) = 322.4
(weight per linear meter)
322.4 + 5% (weaving waste) = 339.36 (weight of the raw material)
339.36 x 8,000 / 1,000 = 2,714.88 (cost per meter of the raw material)
The total cost to divide on each meter is:
1,235.17 + 2,714.88 = 3,950.05
Finally, the cost per stroke results from the ratio between the born expenses and
the density per
Centimeter of the article:
3,950 / 30 (strokes per centimeter) = 131.6
Page no. 10
Obviously this value permits only to recover the expenses, and every mark-up
permits to get a Profit at the end of the year; if the mark-up is between 132 and
150, we obtain:
150 x 30 = 4,500 (price per meter of the fabric) 4,500 x 1,870,176 (meters
produced in one year) = 8,415,792,000 (annual proceeds) (339.36 / 1,000) x
1,870,176 x 8,000 = 5,077,303,419 (annual expense for raw materials)
5,077,303,419 + 2,310,000,000 = 7,308,303,419 (total expenses born in one year)
8,415,792,000 + 7,308,303,419 = 1,107,488,581 (profits in one year)
It may be mentioned that the above costing is done for Italy Of course this
calculation is only indicative of the various expenses which come into play in
Practice and does not consider at all some processes, as e.g. warping, nor the
various rebates or Special price which is granted to regular customers or against
big orders. Moreover the Calculation assumes the production of only one and the
same article on 50 weaving machines, although we know that in reality the
situation is quite different with many producers; the Calculation is anyway
indicative of the mechanisms which regulate the price determination for the
finished product.
It is the process of Italy that is calculating the costing system of woven fabric.

2.4 Fabric cost and Project cost
The cost woven fabric is directly affected by the cost project which is again
depends on all fixed costs e.g. cots of land, cost of machinery, building etc The
cost of an woven fabric producing industry is given below. The project is located
in India and corresponding link is as follows;

We visited some local woven textile industry & collect them of costing woven
fabric. We try to collect more information but for as per company policy most
of the time they dont co-operate with us. Here we try to give concept local
woven fabric costing process. This may vary industry to industry.

3.2 Study of cost calculation based on local market price. Here we adopted
local yarn price and local fabric making charge.
Sample No.1
100% cotton sheeting (calico) 6060/1414
Let us consider,
Warp crimp= 5 %
Weft crimp=5 %
Fabric wastage=3 %
Weight of warp
Weight of weft
Page no. 25
We collect recent yarn market price for 14 Ne 3.25
Making charge 0.45 $
Then finally 6060/1414 fabric price is 1.98 $.

3.3 Development of fabric cost from Priyank Goyal (www.textile
notes.blogspot.com) conception and consumption ratio for outside mills.
During our literature survey we came across with a web site on textile engineering.
In fact this was maintained by the Priyank Goyal who is an expert on textile and
apparel and working as consultant on costing as well as an academic who deliver
lectures in NIFT at New Delhi . Currently he is working as Senior Buyer (Garment
Fabric and Accessories) in a retail organization in India. He has developed an
excel sheet on costing which is described below. Using the sheet we have
calculated the cost of woven fabric. Priyank Goyal Excel File, We use the local
raw materials price then input it on this Excel File then finally we get different
types of gray fabric price.

DISCUSSION
Page no. 38
4.1 Discussion:
Costing of woven fabric is very complex and not easy as it depends on mainly
variables e.g. geographical condition the country concerned labor cost which very
widely from country to country. Cost of power which is also varies from country
to country, types of loom which widely varies costing of woven fabrics. Within
the loom is not brand new is also a factor. Attempt has been made to collect
information for local factories but response was not very good as costing is always
a trade secretes which no body wants to disclose.
Having this is said we have collected information from web sites, then when we
from excel sheet or formulas to developed by experts calculates fabric cost. We
have determined the cost of fabric using those tools. It was however observed that
they are big difference among then. One important finding was that shown below
by figure:-

As the GSM increase fabric price also be increase but the rate of increase of price
relatively low which may be due to the facts that as GSM increase most of cost
factors remain constant except raw material.
Another findings was that the cost of fabric very widely from quality to quality.
This is again related weaving factors. Two fabrics may have same GSM but
different PPI and weft cover factor. The fabric which PPI is higher and weft cover
factor more will generate much be a great problem in weaving loom due to a great
price.

5. Conclusion:
The work reported here describe method of calculation cost of woven fabric very
widely depends on the factors like concern countrys labor cost, power, tax & vats
imposed by the country.
