Warehousing budget contains information on financial and economic indicators characterizing the efficiency of the Warehousing business process and is designed to manage the financial and economic efficiency of the company's warehouse logistics.

The warehouse budget may contain, for example, the following groups of indicators characterizing the efficiency of the Warehousing business process:

  • the total cost of warehousing;
  • warehouse turnover;
  • the coefficient of work intensity of the warehouse;
  • utilization rate of the warehouse area;
  • the amount of excess storage losses;
  • labor productivity;
  • the cost of processing 1 piece.

    With the help of these indicators contained in the warehouse budget, it is possible to control the "Warehousing" business process itself.

    Warehouse logistics in recent times becomes one of the bottlenecks for many growing companies. And in this area of ​​activity, significant reserves of growth in the efficiency of the company's work can be hidden, especially when it comes to trade organizations. Indeed, in trading companies, in contrast to manufacturing companies, a significant proportion of costs are the costs of purchasing goods and warehouse logistics.

    If the company has already more or less optimized its work in terms of reducing purchase prices, then the only area of ​​work that can make a significant contribution to improving activities and improving the financial and economic condition of the company by reducing costs is just logistics and warehouse logistics, in particular ...

    Warehousing budgeting regulations (warehouse costs)

    When building budgeting for warehouse logistics, it is very important to pay attention to ensuring control of cost and time indicators. Moreover, it may even be so that temporary indicators will be more important than cost indicators. That is, for example, a very important indicator can be the processing time of goods in the warehouse, the time of shipment of goods to the buyer, etc. For some businesses, shipping time can be a significant success factor.

    When building the warehouse budgeting regulations, you need to pay attention to the boundaries of this business process. That is, for each of the company's business processes, it should be clear where it begins and how it ends, and at what point in time the responsibility from one department passes to another. At such junctions of business processes, problems may arise that will lead to a deterioration in the performance of business processes, and, as a consequence, the financial and economic performance of the company as a whole.

    In one retail chain, for example, this posed the following problem. Delivery time from supplier to retail outlets was a very significant factor affecting sales. Products from suppliers first arrived at the distribution center for accounting and preparation for shipment to outlets... The company's office and warehouse were located on the 4th floor.

    When the company was looking for an office, it made a mistake. Naturally, when looking through the options for an office space, they always paid attention to whether there is a freight elevator, if the office was not rented on the first floor. As it turned out later, it was necessary to ask the landlords not only about the presence of an elevator, but also whether it was working or not.

    As a result, an office was found that was suitable in all respects and was quite inexpensive. There was a large freight elevator, but it didn’t work, or rather work, but it often broke down. Landlords, when they rented out this room, honestly told everyone that there was a large freight elevator in the building. They did not talk about the fact that it often broke down and did not work because no one asked.

    The landlord made sure that the elevator was working when he looked around the office. The company only later realized that it was necessary to go to other tenants and ask what was there and how. So, since the elevator often broke down, this led to the fact that the drivers of the company, delivering products to the warehouse and from the warehouse to retail outlets, refused to perform the functions of loaders.

    Distribution center employees also said that they work with what is delivered to the warehouse. Due to such disputes, delays in the delivery of goods to retail outlets often occurred and the company lost profits on this. It was possible, in principle, to increase the wages of drivers or employees of the distribution center so that they would close this lost "tail" of the business process. But the company set limits on wages, as well as on other fixed costs.

    That is, the elements of the budgeting system that were in force at that time did not allow such a decision. The company tried to get the landlord to do overhaul elevator. To such an offer from the landlord, an answer was received that this year they also began to introduce a budgeting system and they did not foresee such costs.

    It was possible, of course, to change the office, but in the end it was decided to chip in with the rest of the interested tenants and make a major overhaul of the elevator on our own. According to calculations, this one-time cost solution was more profitable than the increase in monthly labor costs. Moreover, with this decision such an important indicator as the delivery time of the goods decreased, which had a positive effect on the company's revenue and profit.

    An example of a budgeting regulation for warehousing (warehouse costs)

    An example of the main functions that can be performed within the budgeting of warehousing (warehouse costs) in the planning phase (see. Rice. 1):
  • planning the payroll of warehouse employees;
  • planning of administrative expenses of warehouses;
  • planning costs for the maintenance of warehouses;
  • planning costs for loading and unloading operations;
  • storage budget formation;
  • coordination and adjustment of the storage budget;
  • preliminary approval of the warehouse budget.

    An example of the main functions that can be performed within the budgeting of warehousing (warehouse costs) in the accounting, control and analysis phase (see. Rice. 2):

  • collecting data for the actual warehouse budget;
  • formation of the actual budget for warehousing;
  • analysis of warehousing budget execution;
  • coordination and approval of the results of the analysis of the warehouse budget.

    Warehousing budget model (warehouse costs)

    Several approaches can be used to plan warehousing costs. A simpler approach is that for each major item of costs for warehousing, based on the processing of statistical information, the values ​​of costs for the planning period are determined. That is, we are talking about such an approach as planning from the fact. On the one hand, it is quite simple, but on the other hand, it can turn out to be very imprecise.

    A more complex and accurate approach is that all warehousing cost items are divided into variables and fixed ones. For planning fixed costs clear action plans are drawn up, linking them to costs, payments and assets.

    For planning variable costs, again, you can use several different options... For example, you can get a linear dependence of these cost items on volumetric indicators based on the processing of statistical information for the past. Or, by analogy with transportation costs, you can enter internal (transfer) prices for the services of the company's warehouse system.

    That is, you can enter the cost of processing one place in the warehouse, the cost of storage, etc. In this case variable costs warehousing can be more clearly linked to volumetric indicators on which these cost items actually depend.

    But this, of course, will complicate the management accounting system. But the accuracy of planning will increase and the quality of performance of such a function as a plan-actual analysis of the execution of the warehouse budget will increase, which, naturally, will affect the increase in the degree of control over the financial and economic state of the company.

    Warehousing Budget Model (Warehouse Costs) Example

    V table 1 presents an example of a budget for warehousing and storage costs for a trading company that sells coffee machines and cartridges with products (coffee, soups). In this budget, as well as the budgets drawn up for the rest of the business processes of this company, the current and investment part of the costs is allocated. The main items of current costs are: storekeepers' salaries, warehouse rent and depreciation of warehouse fixed assets. Table 1. Warehousing budget example (warehousing and storage costs)

    The salary of storekeepers consists of a fixed and variable part. The fixed part is calculated by multiplying the number of working storekeepers by the salary. In order to determine the number of storekeepers, the following model is used in this budget. A standard for handling cargo turnover is being introduced.

    It is clear that with an increase in freight traffic through the warehouse, an increase in storekeepers is also required. Warehouse turnover is planned based on data on sales, purchases and stock balances. Using the data on the warehouse cargo turnover and the controllability standard, the required number of storekeepers is calculated. For this, the warehouse turnover is divided by the standard, and the resulting number is rounded up.

    The variable part of wages, again, depends on the turnover of goods. The company has introduced a bonus for handling a unit of goods that have passed through the warehouse. Thus, the variable part of the wages of storekeepers is determined by multiplying the value of freight turnover by the bonus for handling a unit of goods.

    By the way, it is obvious that to calculate the variable part of the remuneration, you do not need to know information about the number of storekeepers. Therefore, if storekeepers had only a variable part, then there would be no need to introduce a standard of controllability of cargo turnover. Although you still need to know the number of employees, tk. other budget indicators may also depend on this.

    The cost of renting a warehouse is planned as follows. The area of ​​the premises is multiplied by the rental cost of 1 sq. m. per year and is divided by the coefficient of efficient use of the warehouse area. Obviously, there should be free space in the warehouse so that you can roll carts with goods, arrange goods, etc. Therefore, 100% filling of the warehouse area cannot be achieved.

    In the example presented, it is assumed that this ratio will increase over time. This is quite logically explained by the fact that with an increase in the area of ​​the warehouse, the space required for storekeepers does not grow in direct proportion to the increase in the area. The growth rate of such a workspace is much lower. Therefore, it is planned in the model that within six months the coefficient of efficient use of the warehouse area will increase from 50% to 80%.

    To calculate the required warehouse area in this example Warehousing and storage budget, the following methodology is used (see. Tab. 1). Inventory leftovers are multiplied by the area that is necessary for their placement in accordance with the storage conditions. Naturally, the goods will be placed in the warehouse, so to speak, not in one layer. Therefore, the resulting value is divided by the density of the distribution of goods. And this density is determined by the size of the shelves, taking into account the requirements for the storage of goods.

    The result is rounded up, and thus the estimated warehouse area is obtained. Of course, the model could be complicated, since in reality there may not be a warehouse with the required footage, and therefore you will have to rent a slightly larger room. In addition, if a company plans such dynamic development in advance, it may be more profitable to rent a large room right away.

    In addition, if you look for a new room each time, this can lead to additional costs time (if the company is looking for itself) or money (if the company attracts agents). But in this case, it was decided not to complicate the model, since specifically the management of this company had good relations with the landlord, so he could really "cut" the leased warehouses almost by meters.

    The last recurring cost item in this example budget is depreciation of warehouse fixed assets. It was calculated based on information about the planned acquisition of fixed assets. To calculate depreciation, data on the cost of fixed assets, the period of their acquisition and commissioning, as well as the useful life were used. Fixed assets were considered to be commissioned in the same month they were purchased.

    The investment costs of the presented example of the budget of costs for warehousing and storage consist just of the costs of purchasing fixed assets. When planning the Warehousing and Storage business process, it was decided that for effective work warehouse requires the following fixed assets: computer, workplace, on which one could work on a computer, telephone, shelves for goods and trolleys for transporting them.

    It was decided that one computer and one equipped workstation with a telephone would be sufficient. They were planned to be purchased in the first month. As for carts and racks, a dynamic model was used to plan the number of their purchases. The volume of required racks was tied to inventory leftovers and the capacity of the racks. That is, the number of racks required was calculated by dividing the inventory by the capacity.

    The resulting number was rounded up. The number of carts required was calculated based on the planned warehouse turnover data and the average "traffic" per cart. That is, the turnover of goods was divided by the volume of traffic, and the resulting number was rounded up.

    Naturally, for cost planning, it was necessary to apply not only the model for calculating the quantitative component, but also to determine the price factor. In this example, the model used the assumption that prices will not rise. Although for some cost items, this can be a pretty daring assumption.

    For example, if we are talking about the price of renting premises, then half a year may turn out to be a long enough period for the price to change (naturally, upwards). But in this example, we decided to ignore such a potential impact on costs of the cost factor.

  • Storage costs- costs associated with ensuring the safety of products. Storage costs are additional costs caused by the continuation of the production process in the sphere of circulation, that is, they are of a productive nature. However, they will be productive costs only when storing the standard volume of stocks of products necessary to ensure the continuity of the logistics process. Storage costs include:

    1) costs of maintaining warehouses;

    2) the salary of warehouse personnel;

    3) shortage of products within the norms of natural loss;

    4) administrative and managerial and other expenses. Warehouse costs determined by the amount of costs for organizing the storage of products and the amount of overhead costs.

    Tasks of minimizing warehouse costs:

    1) determination of the optimal number of storage stages;

    2) determination of the optimal number of warehouses at each stage;

    3) determination of the location of warehouses, ensuring the minimum total costs;

    4) finding a rational distribution of places of delivery.

    List of costs required for the operation of the warehouse:

    1) the costs of planning the loading and work of warehouse personnel;

    2) the costs of commissioning and approbation;

    3) annual expenses for inter-warehouse movements;

    4) cash expenses written off as expenses;

    5) the cost of the required initial stocks of products.

    The following indicators of warehouse use efficiency are calculated:

    1) wholesale and warehouse turnover - the main indicator characterizing the operation of a warehouse for a certain period of time (month, quarter, year);

    2) warehouse turnover - the number of goods (in tons) received at the warehouse and released from the warehouse for a certain period;

    3) specific wholesale and warehouse turnover - shows the wholesale and warehouse turnover per 1 m2 of usable warehouse area;

    4) the utilization rate of the useful area of ​​the warehouse - the ratio of the area occupied for storage of goods to the total area of ​​the warehouse;

    5) warehouse throughput - shows how many goods can be processed in the warehouse per unit of time;

    6) the cost of processing 1 ton of goods - the ratio of the total annual operating costs to the warehouse's turnover. The total amount of annual operating costs for the wages of warehouse workers, the costs of storing, receiving, sending goods, the costs of maintaining warehouses and low-value inventory, the amount of commodity losses, etc .;

    7) labor productivity of warehouse workers - is determined by the ratio of the annual warehouse turnover to the average number of employees for a given period of time;

    8) the level of mechanization of work - is defined as the ratio of the amount of work performed with the help of machines to the total amount of work;

    9) specific capital investments - the ratio of one-time capital costs to warehouse turnover;

    10) the payback period of investments - the ratio of one-time investments to the annual amount of profit;

    11) the coefficient of efficiency of the use of capital investments - shows what part of capital investments is reimbursed annually at the expense of profit and is calculated as the sum of profit for the period to a one-time investment.

    3.3.1. The estimated price for the material is formed on the basis of the following constituent elements:
    - selling price (including containers, packaging and props);
    - markups (markups) of supply and marketing organizations;
    -customs duties and fees (if received from abroad);
    - the cost of transportation and handling (as a rule, the cost loading works is taken into account directly by the selling price, and the cost of unloading work is included in the unit prices for construction and installation and repair and construction work);
    procurement and storage costs, including the cost of packaging.

    3.3.12. Procurement and storage costs are determined on the basis of calculations based on the conditions prevailing in the region. For construction projects financed from the federal budget, they are accepted according to the norms of SNiP 4.04-91 as a percentage of the cost of materials, including:

    For building materials, products and structures (excluding metal structures) - 2%;

    For metal building structures - 0.75%;

    Equipment - 1.2%.

    MDS 81-36.2004

    1.7. The FER includes:
    - estimated prices for Construction Materials, products and structures - according to the Federal collection of estimated prices for materials, products and structures used in construction (include the average current selling prices and transport costs in the amount of up to 13% of the selling prices, taking into account delivery from the manufacturer's ex-warehouse to an ex-on-site warehouse construction of an object, including procurement and storage costs and costs of intermediaries in the field of circulation);

    Procurement and storage costs

    When drawing up a local estimate, more and more often the question arises of the need to apply procurement and storage costs to materials and equipment. Let's figure out what they already take into account, and to what extent they should be taken into account.

    MDS 81-35.2004 states:

    4.64. Procurement and storage costs include costs associated with placing purchase orders, acceptance, accounting, storage of equipment in a warehouse, revision and preparation of it for installation, as well as its transfer to installation. They are included in the estimated cost of the equipment. The amount of procurement and storage costs can be determined by a separate calculation.

    Excerpt from the Methodology for the Application of Estimated Prices of Building Resources (Approved by order of the Ministry of Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation of 08.02.2017 77 / pr):

    6.4.5. The cost of material resources, taking into account the cost of delivery to the on-site warehouse, is determined in accordance with the formula З = ((SC x ЗСР + Т1) + (СЦ х ЗСР + Т2)) / 2 (It should be noted that the estimated price of the material is multiplied by a percentage - storage costs (1.02; 1.0075; 1.015)),

    where: З - the cost of a material resource, rubles;

    SC - the estimated price of a construction resource - a consolidated, territorially aggregated, documented information on the cost of construction resources, established by calculation for the adopted unit of measurement and published in the Federal State information system pricing in construction, rubles;

    ЗСР - procurement and storage costs, rub.

    The ZSR indicator is differentiated according to the following types of material resources:

      building materials (excluding metal structures) - 2%;

      metal building structures - 0.75%;

      equipment - 1.5.

    MDS 81-36.2004 states:

    1.7. The FER includes:

    • estimated prices for building materials, products and structures - according to the Federal collection of estimated prices for materials, products and structures used in construction (include the average current selling prices and transport costs in the amount of up to 13% of selling prices, taking into account delivery from the manufacturer's warehouse to an ex-site warehouse for the construction of an object, including procurement and storage costs and costs of intermediaries in the field of circulation);

    General information:

    Free warehouse is a condition of the transaction, according to which the supplier is obliged to deliver the goods to the point indicated in the contract. Before the buyer receives the goods, the seller is responsible for all transportation costs.

    But since the pricing system is currently being reformed, some of the guidelines have been canceled, for example, the well-known MDS 81-36.2004.

    Let's consider in more detail:

    The estimated cost of materials used in construction is determined at the basic price level - according to collections (catalogs) of estimated prices for materials, products and structures - federal, territorial (regional) and industry, and at the current price level - according to the actual cost of materials, products and structures, taking into account transport and procurement and storage costs, margins (surcharges), commissions paid to supplying foreign economic organizations, payment for services commodity exchanges, including brokerage services, customs duties (clause 4.24 MDS 81-35.2004).

    At the moment, with the release of the HESN and FER base in 2017, in the methodological recommendations for the use of material resources, clause 6.4 states that when drawing up the estimate documentation, the costs of material resources are determined on the basis of the estimated prices of construction resources, the prices of services, taking into account the procurement and storage costs, and in the Methodology for determining estimated prices for materials, products, structures, equipment and prices for services for the carriage of goods for construction, clause 4.13 - Estimated prices formed in the manner prescribed by this section do not take into account transportation costs for the delivery of material resources from manufacturers (suppliers ) to the on-site warehouse of the construction site and procurement and storage costs. Transport and procurement and storage costs are determined when drawing up the estimate documentation in the manner prescribed in the Methodology for the application of estimated prices for construction resources, referring us to the methodology and to the IBC.

    Thus, when calculating procurement and storage costs, we use guidelines for the use of material resources and MDS. If you have any disputable questions, you can also ask us a question on e-mail: or call the phones, also ask a question in the chat to a specialist.
