💼 Business Overhead — Fixed Weekly Costs

These are the bills that leave your ANZ account whether the crew works or not. Source: _True Monthly Costs.md audit, April 2026. Divide the weekly sum by your billable days per week = overhead allocation per working day.
Weekly fixed nut $0
Overhead allocation per day $0

Crew Cost Rates (what you PAY)

Hourly cost for labour on site. Different from what you BILL — these are your actual cost.

⚠ Read before quoting sandstone

Apr 2026 audit fix: Install rates + markup may still under-price large sandstone jobs compared to your real $/block pricing (~$850–$900 all-in per block, from the Louise Kurrajong Heights job).

Validate your own defaults against 2–3 recent quotes before sending anything out. Tune Markup on supplied materials % (below) or blocks/day higher if the calc comes in under what you'd actually quote. A sandstone labour premium field is on the Phase 2 backlog.

Day Rates crew

Machine Hourly Hire ex GST

Attachment Day Rates add-on

Flat $/day uplift billed on top of the machine rate. Tap any combo on a Machine Hire job and each attachment adds its $/day × days.

Productivity block installs

Blocks installed per crew-day. Each course after the first gets a speed bonus because the base is level. Tight access adds a labour surcharge (next card).

Billing Rules

Tight access = +25% labour (slower, more careful). Round-up means 0.3 day → 1 full day.

Productivity prep & other

Sandstone Trench Defaults

Installed Block Price

What you charge the client per block (delivered + handling + placement + margin). NOT the ex-quarry cost.

Material Delivery

Cost per truck load (~20 blocks). Auto-added in Installed mode.

Concreting Rates

Individual material & labour rates for concreting. Pump hire ($900) is a separate checkbox on the job. Prep days (excavation, forming) use your crew day rate above.

Disposal Defaults

Material Markup

Applied to crusher, ag pipe, geofab, pallets, and manual material lines. Block pricing above already includes your margin.
