Extended Machine Hour Rate Calculation

The extended machine hour rate calculation increases the simulation capability of manufacturing processes for which project-specific (dedicated) machines are used. The machine costs are no longer constant over the entire project duration but change depending on the data and the location. On the one hand, the hour rate can be manually entered, whereas a value can be entered independently of a date but can also be changed over time. On the other hand, the machine costs can be calculated based on the depreciation of the work load and the consumption parameters.

As part of Sustainable Product Costing you can also determine the amount of greenhouse gases generated by machines during production and include this in your calculation.
