Black Swan Color Cost Calculator

This file allows brands and the supply chain to estimate the cost of color development.  Note that there are multiple tabs: 1) the Cost Calculator, 2) Line-by-line instructions, 3) an filled in example, 4) the formulae used to calculate the metrics (informational), and 5) values for list boxes.  To complete the cost calculator, fill in the orange cells with actual or estimated values.  Look in your PLM or WIP tracking documentation for questions about labdip volume or performance.  Once completed, the metrics cells are auto-populated.  Look at the "Example" tab for an idea of a completed file.  You can also change the numbers in the Example tab to see how the metrics change based on the input.
