C.2 <strong>Cost</strong> Model Overview<br />

The cost parameters considered in determining the net incremental component/assembly<br />

impact to the OEM for new technologies are discussed in detail following.<br />

Unit <strong>Cost</strong> is the sum of total manufacturing cost (TMC), mark-up costs, and packaging<br />

cost associated with producing a component/assembly. It is the net component/assembly<br />

cost impact to the OEM (generally, the automobile manufacturer). Figure C-2 shows all<br />

the factors contributing to unit cost for supplier manufactured components. Additional<br />

details on the subcategories are discussed in the sections that follow.<br />

Figure C-2: Unit <strong>Cost</strong> Model – <strong>Cost</strong>ing Factors Included in <strong>Analysis</strong><br />

For OEM manufactured components/assemblies, the unit cost is calculated in the same<br />

way, except that mark-up is addressed outside the scope of this study through application<br />

of indirect cost (IC) multipliers. The IC multiplier assigned is based on the technology<br />

complexity level and timeframe in the market place. See Section C.3 for additional<br />

details. The full report, “Automobile Industry Retail Price Equivalent and Indirect <strong>Cost</strong><br />
