Pricing math from the production floor

Art and setup charges, why a second location is not double, the underbase flash time nobody bills for, customer-supplied garments, rush pricing, reorder math done properly, and when the right answer is to decline the job.

The full cost math behind a screen printing price calculator: blanks, freight, screens, loaded labor, overhead per production minute, and margin. Worked all the way to a per-shirt price on a real 72-shirt job, plus what changes at 24 and 288.

If your shop runs embroidery, DTF, HTV or large format alongside screen print, splitting overhead by revenue quietly overcharges one and undercharges the other. Here is the time-based fix.
