This Reverse Costing analysis has been conducted in several phases :
• The initialization of the analysis
Pictures of the elements to be studied.
Identification of the components.
• Description of the material in the “SYScost+” software
Creation of an “estimation project” of the studied board with SYScost+software.
Construction of the Bill of Material (BOM).
• Assessing the material
Searching for the price of each reference among distributors and manufacturers.
Assessing the cost of the PCB and of the unaccounted references (unknown by distributors)
The BOM is valued with SYScost+ : price simulation according to the requested quantities.
• Assessing the assembling and test phases
Assembly and test lines are modeled with the SYScost+ software.
The assembly and tests costs are estimated.
• Production cost & selling price
Estimation of the production cost & selling price.
• Report
A report is edited.
SYScost+©, is a software tool developed by SYSTEM PLUS CONSULTING to calculate the cost of electronic boards. More
information on the software can be found at www.systemplus.fr.

Reverse costing analysis represents the best cost/price evaluation given the publically available data, and estimates
completed by industry experts.
Given the hypothesis presented in this analysis, the major sources of correction would lead to a +/- 10% correction on the
manufacturing cost (if all parameters are cumulated).
These results are open for discussion. We can reevaluate this circuit with your information. Please contact us:
