Measure the outside walls of the warehouse. This should include all areas of the building on which you are paying rent and which are considered a part of the warehouse. If the building is oddly shaped or has been expanded multiple times, this task can be somewhat time consuming.
Once you have completed the measurement, calculate the number of square feet in the warehouse. For this example, we will say the warehouse is 175 feet deep and 230 feet long. This results in a total of 40,250 square feet (175 X 230 = 40,250). This is the first number you will need to complete your storage cost calculations. Review the financial statements to determine the expenses incurred by the warehouse during the previous 12 months. Add the cost to rent the building, utilities, security contracts and the cost for any services such as landscaping or janitorial services. Add to this the costs of payroll and any employee benefits provided, including health insurance, 401k contributions and taxes.
Towards strategic planning in food-grain warehousing: The role of large-scale warehouse facilities on markets‟ mechanisms and impact on food security 2011 1 Preface The overall objective of this study is to understand the role of large-scale warehouse facilities on.
Include insurance cost as well as equipment cost such as forklifts, copiers, computers and vehicles. To this list add any other expenses incurred by the warehouse during the time period in question. When all the data has been collected, total the amounts to determine the annual cost to operate the warehouse.
Calculate storage costs an additional way. Take the total number of units shipped during the previous 12 months and add the total number of units currently stored in the warehouse. This is the total number of units handled during the previous year. Divide the total warehouse cost of $750,000 by the number of units handled, which for this example will be 500,000 units, which gives you a warehouse storage cost of $1.50 per unit. This calculation can help to determine overall profitability, where improvements need to be made, and how changes can affect the cost per inventory unit.
