Equipment ROI & Cost-Per-Hour Calculator

The Equipment ROI & Cost-Per-Hour Calculator turns your ownership costs and expected usage into a true cost-per-hour for any owned or leased machine, then puts that number side by side with the rental day-rate you'd pay instead. Enter purchase price, financing, insurance, maintenance, and expected annual hours; the workbook computes cost-per-hour, a break-even hours figure, and a rent-vs-buy comparison across every asset you add. A multi-asset comparison sheet ranks the fleet so the marginal machine is visible before your next acquisition. Every figure — purchase price, rates, hours, rental comparison — is your own number entered on your own Settings date; the workbook ships with no benchmark rates and asserts none.
