Report: Summary by Activity, Fully Founded Costs
|
|
Focus:
Focus of Report is to provide a summary, by block, of your full costs
by activity. The report calculates full costs as the sum of payments to
contracts plus the internal charges for using your own equipment, based on the
fully founded rate -- the rate that is intended the full hourly operating cost
of the equipment including the driver.
- Employee and Vendor pay calculators must be run for the report
- Costs included are all payments to contractors (except miscellaneous
expenses); costs for equipment are based on the fully founded rates.
- The actual delivered volume is calculated by load
slips delivered over the date range selected for the block
- Equipment cost is based on the equipment fully founded cost entered for each
unit (Maintenance time is NOT charged out at standard cost).
- Tree counts are not necessary
- Time entries are necessary for your own equipment, regardless of how your
employees are actually paid.
Selection Window:
The selection window allows you to filter the report by:
- Date/Time. You can directly ender a date/time range for the start
and end dates for your report. If you leave the end time blank, the
program will assume you want the entire day for the end date. In the
example below, the start date/time is 8/1/2004 00:00:00 (a blank is assumed
to be time 00:00:00) and the end date/time is 8/15/2004 00:00:00.
Because the end date time is blank (or 00:00:00), the program assumes you
want the whole day of the 15th and makes the end date/time 8/16/2004
00:00:00. In the selection query, the program returns records
whose start date/time is greater than OR equal to the start/date time and strictly
less than the end date/time. You do not need to select a period
-- this selection is merely used to facilitate the entry of the state and
end dates. If you select a period, you can always edit the state and
end dates to be any date you choose. For example, you can pick a
period defined as 8/1/2004 to 8/12/2004, and then extend the end date by
three days to 8/15/2004.
- Block: You can select any or all of your blocks.
- The "Only Print Raw Data" option generates a report with the
report detail, but with no subtotals or totals.

Detailed Description:
The report shows the cost for a block on an activity-by-activity basis. The
columns are:
- Block Code: Block where work is performed
- Activity: Work activity
- Own Equipment Cost: Internal charge for the use of your equipment (at
fully found rate)
- Contractor Cost: All payments to contractors for contractor-owned
equipment and/or contract operators.
- Total Cost: Sum of Own Equipment Cost and Contractor Cost
- Total Volume: The volume of loads (from loadslips) delivered in the selected
date range for that block
- Total Weight: The weight of loads (from loadslips) delivered in the selected
date range for that block
- Cost/Volume: Total cost divided by Total Volume -- Cost per unit of
volume for each activity.
- Cost/Weight: Total cost divided by Total Weight -- Cost per unit of
weight for each activity.
