About costs of operation

In the 8-3 Equipment window, on the Cost Recovery Worksheet tab, under Cost of Operation, enter the costs to operate the equipment per unit of use. Include the labor costs for the fueling and maintenance work, but do not include the labor costs for equipment operation. The labor costs associated with equipment operation are handled through payroll.

When you calculate the rates, Sage 100 Contractor computes the total operating costs per unit and displays that rate in the Operating Total box.
