The unit, fully costed.
A one-time workbook for people who make things. Materials, hours, waste, fees, and the booth — on one SKU you can actually price from.
See a unit, filled in.
A candle, a bar of soap, a pair of earrings. Each tab is one product with materials, time, waste, and fees already in the cells — so you can see how the math works before you type yours.
Materials are the start. They are not the unit.
Hours at the bench, the 8% that never made it to the shelf, the Etsy cut, the mailer, Saturday at the market. Leave those off the page and the price is a guess.
Wax, jar, wick, label, 18 minutes, 8% waste, Etsy 6.5%. Per unit $11.84 before retail.
Clay, glaze, kiln power, 22 minutes. Wholesale at half of $28 sits under the unit.
Saturday booth $85 across 40 bars is $2.12 that never lived in the soap.
Mailer and kraft: $1.80 a board, sitting outside the price.
Faire wanted 50% off a retail number that was copied, not costed. Wholesale would have been below the unit.
Bench time 40 minutes. At $22 an hour that is $14.67 before a stone goes in.
Zippers fail on about 1 in 12. The eleven that sell have to carry the twelfth.
Bottle, label, and 2.9% processing on a $9 bottle left $1.10. That is not a product.
The Costing Workbook is $39
One Excel or Google Sheets file. Materials, labor, overhead, waste, fees, packing. Buy it once. Use it on every SKU.
Materials are the start.
Wax, findings, fabric. Then time, waste, and the cut platforms take.
Your hours belong on the line.
Forty minutes at $22 an hour is $14.67 before a finding goes in.
Fees sit on the unit.
Etsy, Faire, cards, tape — they come off the price after you thought you were done.
Wholesale is not half of retail.
Fifty percent off a copied sticker is how a shop gets the unit below cost.
Built for how you actually sell.
