(Line Item 4)
Many owners charge interest as part of hourly
owning and operating costs, others consider it as
general overhead in their overall operation. When
charged to specific machines, interest is usually
based on the owner’s average annual investment in
the unit.
Interest is considered to be the cost of using cap-
ital. The interest on capital used to purchase a
machine must be considered, whether the machine
is purchased outright or financed.

lays for repairs usually come in spurts. However,
when broad averages are considered, the stairstep
becomes a smooth, upward curve. Since this hourly
repair cost curve starts low and gradually rises over
time, hourly operating costs must be adjusted upward
as the unit ages. Alternatively an average repair
cost can be used which provides a straight line graph.
Most owners prefer the average method, and it is
the one suggested here.
