Ohmni,
A quick way of getting some crude figures, get the last stat accounts, take the P&L and work out the ebita. From this you have sales, production costs and business admin left.
Now for the research, look through.and find out the product split for sales, look where the staff are based, building locations to split out your admin costs uk/usa etc obviously making a few assumptions on costs.
After this split the P&L into cost centres by product, take the costs you have left after admin costs and apportion it weighted by product sales , you can then refine further these costs by digging back through each set of accounts and.look at the trend between sales and cost. You now have a very basic set of production standard costs per % of turnover. Add the costs to the location based on projected sales.
The accounts are done on an accrual basis so the figures will be very rough but you will have an idea of each locations cash burn for 12 months, you will also need to take into account economies of scale but a few tries and you will start to get an idea.
