Hourly Costs


$25hr Truck, trailer, tractor and implement rental
$2hr fuel for truck
$2.50hr fuel for tractor
$29.50hr total cost.
$$15.5hr profit.

I plan on giving estimates by the job not the hour. I will charge 1hr min. on over seeding, rolling etc. I should be able to get my profit up on the smaller jobs that I'm going after in town.Small properties that I can do in less then an hour should boost the bottom line. Driving distance should be less 200km a day.

Just as I fell asleep last night I realized that I had put in the wrong $$ for the truck rental. The price is $20hr not 25. That brings the profit total up to $20.05hr.

So I screwed myself out of a few $$ yesterday. The rental price for the equipment is $20hr. The boss and I hammered out that deal the other day. I was going to pay him from when I left the yard till I got back. Well yesterday I told him Id pay him by the hours I charge for. :hammerhead: :hammerhead: I knew I screwed up when he said "that would work out alot better for me" :dizzy: Oh well still a hell of a deal.
