Understanding Depreciation for Electronic Manufacturers
12/04/2024 | Doug Palladino, ASC Sunstone CircuitsAs a PCB design engineer, your focus is on creating innovative, cost-effective designs. However, the financial aspects behind your designs—such as depreciation—play a significant role in the overall business. While depreciation may sound like "accounting speak," understanding it can help you make better decisions for your projects, especially when dealing with equipment, machinery, or even intangible assets like software licenses.
It’s Only Common Sense: Make the Investment Where It Really Counts
12/05/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseWhen I consider the real cost to manufacture a product, I think about the misguided and short-sighted decisions business owners and managers sometimes make in response to tough times. I’m amazed at how often I hear about PCB shop owners who complain about not having enough business, yet their solution isn’t to hire more salespeople or invest in marketing. Nope. Instead, they go out and buy a shiny new drill.
