How to Calculate Capacity Utilization
Formula
Capacity Utilization = (Actual Output / Maximum Capacity) x 100
Capacity utilization shows how much of your productive capability you are using. Very high utilization (above 95%) leaves no room for unexpected demand or maintenance, while very low utilization (below 70%) means resources are sitting idle and fixed costs are spread across fewer units. The sweet spot for most operations is 80-90%.
Exemple Résolu
A factory has maximum capacity of 10,000 units per month and actually produces 8,000.
- 01Capacity Utilization = (8,000 / 10,000) x 100 = 80%
- 02Unused Capacity = 10,000 - 8,000 = 2,000 units
- 03Idle Capacity = (2,000 / 10,000) x 100 = 20%
Questions Fréquentes
What utilization rate should I target?
Most manufacturers target 80-90%. Below 80% suggests underutilization and rising per-unit costs. Above 90% risks quality issues, delayed maintenance, and inability to handle demand surges. Service businesses may target differently.
How do I increase capacity utilization?
Increase demand through marketing and sales, add new products to fill unused capacity, reduce downtime through preventive maintenance, improve scheduling, and consider outsourcing excess capacity to other businesses.
