Manufacturing Cost Formula
Total Manufacturing Cost =
Battery Cell Cost
- BMS Cost
- Enclosure Cost
- Wiring Cost
- Connector Cost
- Nickel Strip Cost
- Labour Cost
- Testing Cost
- Packaging Cost
- Overhead Cost
Battery Energy Formula
Battery Energy (Wh) = Battery Voltage (V) × Battery Capacity (Ah)
Example
Voltage = 48V
Capacity = 20Ah
Battery Energy = 48 × 20 = 960Wh
Cost per Watt-hour Formula
Cost per Wh = Total Manufacturing Cost ÷ Battery Energy (Wh)
Example
Manufacturing Cost = ₹18,500
Battery Energy = 960Wh
Cost per Wh = ₹19.27/Wh
Cost per Kilowatt-hour Formula
Cost per kWh = Total Manufacturing Cost ÷ Battery Energy (kWh)
Example:
Battery Energy = 0.96kWh
Manufacturing Cost = ₹18,500
Cost per kWh = ₹19,271/kWh
Selling Price Formula
Selling Price = Manufacturing Cost + Profit Margin
Example:
Manufacturing Cost = ₹18,500
Profit Margin = 25%
Selling Price = ₹23,125
