Tip: To list items with the highest profit margins first, you could rank them with a 1 to represent the highest profit margin.

Last FET

Lets you enter the federal excise tax you paid for the item the last time it was received. TireMaster updates this amount after you price each new receiving.

Note: To use this amount on receivings and work orders, the system control Use Next FET for POS/Receivings (Inventory tab) needs to be set to No.

Next FET

Displays the system-generated average cost of the item’s federal excise tax.

Note: To use this amount on receivings and work orders, the system control Use Next FET for POS/Receivings (Inventory tab) needs to be set to Yes.

Price Matrix

Lets you assign a price matrix to the item. For more information, see Price Matrices.

Parts

Lets you set the price, excluding labor, for the item.

Labor

Lets you set a labor price for the item.

EDL

Displays the item’s everyday low price, which is the sum of the parts price and the labor price.

Relief %

Lets you define a percentage (as a decimal) that is used to estimate the cost of noninventoriable items. In TireMaster Plus and TireMaster Corporate, this entry enables the item’s cost to post to the GL once the invoice is completed.

Flat Rate

Lets you define the amount of time it takes an average mechanic to perform a service or repair. Flat rates are used for labor items only.

Note: This entry enables you to calculate the number of hours mechanics spend completing services and repairs.

Price By

Lets calculate a markup or margin for the item based on either its base price or last cost.

Note: The price change using the specified margin or markup takes effect once you recalculate the item’s price. For more information, see Recalculate Factor Based Prices.

Op

Lets you define which factor to use when recalculating the item’s price:

M for markup (multiplies the item’s cost by the factor)

D for margins (divides the item’s cost by the factor)

Note: Op stands for operator.

Base Price

Lets you enter an amount that parts price calculations are based on. Using a base price instead of last cost prevents prices from fluctuating with each receiving.

Note: To use the base price as the ordering price for purchase orders and receiving documents, set the system control Base Price - Use Instead of Last Cost for POs/RDs (Inventory tab) to Yes.

Last Cost

Displays the amount that the item last cost you. You can manually update this amount if needed.

Note: If the last cost is $0.00, the amount of the base price will be copied into this field.

Core Cost

Lets you assign a core cost to an item. For more information, see Maintain Core Cost Information.

Factor

Lets you define a percentage (as a decimal) to use for updating the item’s price with factor based price calculations.

Note: Depending on which operator you use, the item’s cost is either multiplied or divided by the number in this field.

Std. Cost

Lets you set a standard cost for the item.

Note: Standard cost is available in TireMaster Plus and TireMaster Corporate systems. Standard cost forces TireMaster to maintain a steady cost for an item because its true cost often fluctuates.

Sale Begin
