Co-Products and By-Products in Process manufacturing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi all,

I was working with Co-products and By-products, I had a small issue in understanding the Co-products and By-products setting for formula products.

In a Self study case on Process manufacturing, there are 2 products namely doughnuts and bread rolls. For producing these items, Dough is required. Processing time of 500 Kg of dough takes 1 Hr. Given Formula for these formula items is for a formula QTY of 20 which requires 1,85 Kg of dough along with other ingredients to produce the formula products (doughnuts & read rolls)

Doughnuts by-product is that 5% of the dough is scrapped. The scrapped value needs to be included in the finished product cost and has no Co-products. Bread rolls Co-products is 10% of lower grade of dough that can be reused. It needs to be stocked. Bread rolls have no by-products.

How should the setting in the Formula for Bread rolls, for stocking 10% of the lower grade dough and reuse? How should the setting in the Formula for Doughnuts, where the 5% of the By-products is scrapped? How should i represent them in the formulas and how should i see the production results of these by-products and co-products?

    Hi Nitish,

    Sorry for late response...

    You need to create the "scraped dough" item as an actual item and set it as by-product.

    Same for "Low grade dough".

    These are added then simply as bi and co products in your Formula.
