The main objective of this service is to objectively and assertively determine the cost of each product or service, product family or business unit of the company, and from there, make the best decision for pricing the sales.
Our methodology starts on defining the processes and activities of costing process, including interviews with those responsible for functional areas, analysis of production chain, better definition of cost centre and chart of accounts, so we can define the best strategy for allocating direct and indirect expenses, investments and apportionment criteria in production lines.

Raw material
Packaging material
Direct labor
Maintenance
Depreciation
Electricity
