Research On The Logistics Costs Controlling Of Enterprises

The reduction of logistics cost is a traditional theme for every enterprise. The economical and social benefits due to the effective logistics cost control are notable. And it plays an important role in logistics management and becomes the most direct means in extending the third-part profit. Therefore, how to implement the rationalization of logistics cost control has been increasingly focused, explored and fulfilled.This essay establishes and optimizes the logistics cost checking model based on the operation process. Then based on the authentic data from one certain company, it checks the logistics cost for specific production. By comparing the results with the traditional method, it proves the significance of the new model.This essay covers the following parts of the research concerning the system of logistics cost control.The first part of the essay reviews the existing researches on logistics cost control, and defines the basic concepts, and analyzes the composing, the attribute and the influence factors. It also ascertains the significance of logistics cost control research at present in China.The second part analyzes the logistics cost controlling system by elaborating the controlling principles. It explains the key point: logistics cost checking. In this part, the operation cost analyses are introduced by analyzing the detailed checking contents and methods which provide the effective instrument for controlling logistics cost.The third part pays great attention in elaborating a new logistics cost measuring model for enterprises. The new model is based on the logistics operation flow. It divides the whole flow into many smaller ones, and then measures the cost of each flow. With that the overall cost can be distributed to every operational process, then the accurate overall logistics cost can be figured out by cumulating the cost of every process. Meanwhile this part of the essay also puts forward a customer's profit-extending model based on the accurately-measured logistics cost.The forth part validates the feasibility and scientificalness of the model presented by empirical analysis. According to an authentic condition of one certain company, the logistics cost is figured out by traditional method as well as by the operational checking model. By comparing the results, we proved that the new model is scientific in theory and feasible in practice.
