- Buying

Product cost does not equal material cost because product cost encompasses more than just the
cost of materials used in manufacturing a product. Product cost is the total cost incurred by a
company to produce, manufacture, and deliver a product to the customer. It includes various
components, and while materials are a significant part, they are not the only factor.
A supply chain manager is responsible for overseeing and coordinating all activities related to
the production and delivery of goods or services, from the acquisition of raw materials to the
delivery of the final product to customers. The primary goal is to ensure the efficiency, cost-
effectiveness, and overall success of the supply chain.
