Design for Manufacturing Course 12: Costing

What you'll get

Scott Miller of Dragon Innovation, a firm that sold manufacturing services to hardware startups, gives this 2014 class on the costs of production: cost of goods sold, the bill of materials and cash flow, including how much money a large order ties up between paying a factory and getting paid by a retailer. Its dollar figures are more than a decade old, so use it to learn which questions to ask about cost and cash before a first order, then run your own numbers.
