Cost Markup

The Work program's Cost Markup feature enables users to apply additional charges or overhead costs to the use of a Work Order Resource. For example: An agency must rent a trencher to perform a Work Order Task. The rental fee is $250 per day. The user adds a Cost Markup to the Equipment Resource record to account for those charges.

Note: Cost Markup calculations are applied to values in a Resource's Normal Time/Cost fields.

Cost Markup Record Fields

Percentage	Applies a fraction of the Resource's cost to the Total Cost as a markup. Enter a number. The system will divide this number by 100 for all calculations.
Flat Rate	Applies a set amount as a markup.
Calculate On	Controls how the system applies the Flat Rate markup. 1\|Units - Multiplies the Flat Rate by the Resource's Units value to calculate the markup. 2\|Subtotal - Adds the Flat Rate as a fixed value .
New Unit Cost Add-on	Displays the amount added per Unit. If the Markup method was: Percentage = (Percentage/100) x Resource's Unit Cost Fixed Rate on Unit - Displays the Flat Rate. Fixed Rate on Subtotal - N/A.
Total Cost Markup	Indicates the amount that this Markup record will add to the Resource's Cost Markup value. If the Markup method was: Percentage = New Unit Cost Add-on x Resource's Units Fixed Rate on Unit = Flat Rate x Units Fixed Rate on Subtotal - Displays the Flat Rate. Note: When Total Cost Markup > Not To Exceed, the Not To Exceed value will replace the Total Cost Markup. This value is rolled into the Cost Markup value on the Work OrderResource record; which, in turn, is rolled into the G Total Cost of the Task.
Not To Exceed	Identifies a limit at which this Cost Markup will be capped. When Total Cost Markup > Not To Exceed, the Not To Exceed value will replace the Total Cost Markup.
