Batch Size & Setup Optimizer – Best Batch Size, Cost per Item & Setup Savings
Find the Best Batch Size — Setup Cost, Cost per Item, and Monthly Savings
A batch size and setup optimizer for handmade products. Enter your setup minutes and waste, minutes and materials per item, overhead, wage, monthly sales, holding cost, and storage limits, then compare seven batch sizes to get the cost per item, setup share, setup hours per month, months of stock, the economic batch size, the recommended batch, and your monthly savings.
What This Spreadsheet Calculates

- Cost per item at each size

- Months of stock

- Monthly savings vs the smallest batch
Making items one at a time repeats setup every time. Making too many ties up cash and shelf space. The right batch size is in between.
