I am going to assume that you are selling said product. The basic formula I use starts with price of raw material used. I then calculate time spent in producing said product. I award myself an hourly rate and add this number to the raw price. For over head I take my monthly totals of power water and insurances, and assign that 100%. Next I compare the ratio of time spent on the product verses total month, to monthly overhead to obtain each products share. As an example, if 100 hours cost $100 then 3 hours spent on each product needs to pay $3 for its share. So in summation add raw material cost, your wage, the overhead percentage, through in 30% or so profit to fill the gaps and there's your sub total. But don't forget your state's sales tax. Hope this was helpful.
