Chapters

So we did a big property cleanup today. Branches, leaves, debris, a little bit of pruning and shaping, but mostly a big cleanup. That was 16 budgeted hours. We charged $90 per hour in labor revenue. So 16 times 90 equals 1440. 1440 times 0.33. 0.33 resembles 33% of all labor revenue, which goes to the employees or the people doing the work. So 1440 times 0.33 equals $475.20. That divided by two, since there's two of us. Equals two.
Is what each of us made today. Divide that by eight. Since we each worked eight clocked hours, that's equal to $29.70 is what we each made on P4P. That's crushing it. That's P4P.
