How to use this section
These calculators share a set of definitions, which is why they are grouped together. If you are measuring a line for the first time, start with Machine Hour Rate Calculator and work outward — the numbers you collect there are the inputs the others need.
Each page states its own assumptions. Where a term could reasonably be defined two ways, the page says which definition it uses, so you can adjust before the number reaches a report.
