Report: Production, Own Equipment, Summary, by Estimated Volume
(#106)
|
|
Why:
You need a report that shows your equipment costs and production for your
hourly equipment where you keep track of your production through the use of tree
counts on your time slips. Costs are based on the Fully Founded Rate.
Focus:
Focus of Report is to provide a summary, by block, of the hours worked
and cost for your equipment. The report provides a breakout of hours by
activity. If tree counts are entered on time slips, the report computes
the estimated production of the equipment and the cost per unit of production.
The report is a companion report to Blocks, Production, Own
Equipment, Daily, by Estimated Volume that provides a detailed
daily) version of the data.
- Report is based solely on time slips -- contractor equipment time slips are
excluded
- The Employee pay calculator must be run for the report (equipment costs
are computed when the employee calculator is run)
- The usefulness of the report depends on the use of tree counts.
- The volume of production is based on the tree counts multiplied by the
volume/tree entered on the block. If two tree counts are enabled, the
tree count will be the sum of the two tree counts; the volume will be the
sum of the estimated production for each tree count.
- Equipment cost is based on the equipment full founded (all found) cost entered for each
unit (Maintenance time is NOT charged out at standard cost).
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 payments due for each load on an activity-by-activity basis. The
columns are:
- Block Code: Source Block of the load
- Eq Code: Equipment Code
- Equipment: Equipment description
- Activity: Work activity
- Hours: Count of hours for the equipment for the activity over the
date range
- Equip Rate: Fully founded hourly rate for the equipment.
(Maintenance time is NOT charged out at standard cost)
- Equipment Cost: Fully founded cost for the activity
- Trees: The sum of Tree Count 1 and Tree Count 2 on time slips
- M3/Tress: Estimated production divided by Tree count
- Estimated Production: The sum of the two tree counts each
multiplied by the volume per tree for the block (Each tree count is
first multiplied by its respective volume per tree; these two products are
then summed to arrive at estimated production)
- Cost/Volume: Equipment cost divided by Estimated Production.
Where no tree counts are recorded, the value will be reported as zero.
- Volume/Hour: Estimated production divided by hours
Note that in this report the estimated volume per tree is based on the values
you input when you set up a block:
When you set up a block you can enter one or two values for the volume per
tree that are associated with the tree counts you enter on time slips.
Key Notes:
- Report is based solely on time slips (employee and contractor);
Production slips and miscellaneous expenses are excluded.
- The Employee pay calculator must be run for the report
- The usefulness of the report depends on the use of tree counts.
- The volume of production is based on the tree counts multiplied by the
volume/tree entered on the block. If two tree counts are enabled, the
tree count will be the sum of the two tree counts; the volume will be the
sum of the estimated production for each tree count.
- Equipment cost is based on the equipment fully founded cost entered for
each unit (Maintenance time is NOT charged out as a standard cost).
The total trees and production for an entire block is based on the
activity(ies) that are identified as the activity tagged 'Use for Production'
This flag is used to identify the activity that you want to use to govern the
total production for a block. For example, you might have production data
for skidding, bunching and delimbing. Which activity data serves as the
best estimate of overall block production. The 'Use for Production'
indicator is used to resolve this issue.
Example One:
Example Report 1 shows the report where employee payroll costs are calculated
based on each employee's base (as opposed to fully loaded) pay rate. In this example the
worker/equipment data for a block are totaled for all days in the selected date
range. Note that the total trees for the block (on line 18)
shows the tree count for the activity flagged as the production activity (bunching is the activity that
is flagged as the production indicator, the other activities are not). Thus, the daily
tree counts and production (and cost/volume) for the block are based on the
values for bunching alone. The equipment rate and equipment cost columns
are based on the fully founded rate.
