Is there a way to determine how shop supplies are charged? Is it a percentage of parts cost, total labor, or combination of both?
I cant figure it out.
I have estimates for two different unrelated repairs.
One estimate is for $4100 the other for $2600
But the shop supplies are $260 and $210 only $40 different.
Btw grrrr since there is a line item bill for every nut, bolt, washer, squirt of lubricant, wire tie, etc... I really hate shop supplies bill.

Have to ask the service department, it all varies shop to shop.
Its a lot easier to charge shop supplies than to account for every single nut and bolt. Can easily waste a quarter of the day walking to the part's counter for piddly stuff like that. -
FL and Pete Dealers charge for full tube, can, or bottle of everything used on the job even if it just a little bit used. Need a qt top off of oil or coolant you pay for a gallon jug. Just a little dab of rtv for a small gasket you bought the tube. And cans of that magical glorious invention called brake clean for every job. Lol.

Those miserable so and sos, that grinds my gears more than anything. Shop supplies billed to the customer goes again what's right. It's SHOP SUPPLIES,,,for the shop. If they billed me for "shop supplies", I'd demand the "supplies" I just bought.
