Dear Mumtaz, This is an interesting very wide subject.. It very much depends on what you are seeking precisely. i.e. If you are using an ERP system capable of Cost calculation based on factual data, you could be running costs close to reality.. If you are seeking a stand alone system, then you will feed in data that are not actual but would allow you an approach to costs.. A couple I know of can be supplied using special software dedicated to such task, with some options, such as calculating directly from CAD/CAM data or alternatively using Quoting software.
