Repair cost calculation for equipment

Work in labour hours, parts and materials, markup, discount and VAT — the total at once, and the calculation downloads as XLSX with formulas or as PDF. It counts only from your figures: the calculator does not know or invent market prices.

The calculator is showing an example — a hydraulic cylinder repair. Replace the lines with your own or start from empty.

How the calculator works

  1. Work: labour hours of each operation × the rate — per line or shared.
  2. Parts and materials: quantity × price.
  3. Markup: a percentage of the parts and materials amount.
  4. Total before discount: work + parts + materials + markup + other costs.
  5. Discount: a percentage of the total before discount.
  6. Amount without VAT: the total before discount minus the discount.
  7. VAT: the amount without VAT × your rate — or No VAT if it is ticked.
  8. Total: the amount without VAT plus VAT.

Every line and every total is rounded to kopecks.

Where to take the figures from

  • The list of work and parts — from the defect report: what is broken and what to replace.
  • Labour hours — from the equipment manufacturer's standards, industry reference books or your own timekeeping.
  • The labour-hour rate is set by you, from the cost of the mechanics, overheads and the planned profit — how to calculate it is in the article on the labour hour.
  • Part prices — from the supplier's invoice or your own price list.
