Downtime Cost Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Downtime Cost Calculator.
DC = DT * ARU
- Where DC is the Downtime Cost ($)
- DT is the total downtime (hr)
- ARU is the average revenue per hour during uptime ($/hr)
How to Calculate Downtime Cost?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Downtime Cost.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total downtime (hr). The total downtime (hr) is given as 5.
- Next, determine the average revenue per hour during uptime ($/hr). The average revenue per hour during uptime ($/hr) is provided as 200.
- Finally, calculate the downtime cost using the equation above:
DC = DT * ARU
The values given above are inserted into the equation below:
DC = 5 * 200 = 1,000.00 ($)
Example Problem #2:
The variables needed for this problem are provided below:
total downtime (hr) = 6
average revenue per hour during uptime ($/hr) = 150
Entering these values and solving gives:
DC = DT * ARU = 900.00 ($)
