| # Examples of subcontracting rates The following data is used in the examples:
Subcontracting rate | $ 50
Subcontracting factor | 2.5
Gross output | 170
Man hours | Gross output * cycle time (hrs) = 170 * 0.1 = 17
Machine hours | Gross output * cycle time (hrs) = 170 * 0.2 = 34
Fixed amount by product Subcontracting costs =
    gross output * subcontracting rate
= 170 * 50 = $8,500 Operation rate Subcontracting costs =
    gross output * subcontracting rate * rate factor
= 170 * 50 * 2.5 = $21,250 Man hour rate Subcontracting costs =
    man hours * subcontracting rate
= 17 * 50 = $850 Machine hour rate Subcontracting costs =
    machine hours * subcontracting rate
= 34 * 50 = $1,700 Note If the currency system is Independent, which is defined in the Companies (tcemm1170m000) session, you see two currencies in the Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000) details session.
