A user-friendly computer program is developed in Visual Basic
environment to determine the all types of machinery costs on hour and hectare basis. The
program is also capable to compute breakeven area and time of use of machines to get
back return on investment. The input parameters of the developed program are mainly
initial price, life of machine, rate of interest, fuel cost, labor wages etc. for power source
as well as implement. The total cost is being calculated in two heads namely fixed and
variable cost. The fixed cost consists of depreciation, interest, taxes, housing and
insurance cost, while variable costs includes fuel, lubrication, wages, repair and
maintenance cost. The developed program successfully calculates the cost of operation
in rupees per hour and in rupees per hectare of different combinations of power sources
and implements. The breakeven analysis of any combination of the power source and
implement can also be analyzed. This program can be a useful tool for suggesting the
farmers in purchasing a machine as well as in deciding the custom hiring rates etc. This
can also help to entrepreneurs who are engaged in custom hiring services to decide the
hiring rate of different machinery on the basis of breakeven analysis. Kompjuterski program prilagođen korisniku je razvijen u Visual Basic
okruženju da odredi sve tipove troškova mašina po času i hektaru. Program takođe omogućuje izračunavanje oblasti izjednačenja i vreme upotrebe mašina do povraćaja
investicije. Ulazni parametric razvijenog programa su uglavnom početna cena, radni vek
mašine, kamatna stopa, troškovi goriva, troškovi rada itd, za pogonske mašine i
priključke. Ukupni troškovi se izračunavaju u dve grupe, fiksni i varijabilni troškovi.
Fiksni troškovi se sastoje od depresijacije, kamate, poreza, smeštaja i osiguranja, dok
varijabilni troškovi uključuju gorivo, mazivo, plate, popravke i održavanje. Razvijeni
program uspešno izračunava troškove rada po času rada i po hektaru, za agregate
različitih pogonskih i priključnih mašina. Analiza bilansa svakog agregata takođe može
da se izvede. Ovaj program može da bude korisno sredstvo za preporuke farmerima pri
kupovini mašina, pri određivanju cene iznajmljivanja i sl. Ovo takođe može da pomogne
preduzimačima u servisima da odrede cene iznajmljivanja različitih mašina na osnovu
analize bilansa.
