True cost of loss calculator
Build the cost up layer by layer instead of reading it off the skip invoice, then test whether the fix pays.
What one stream actually costs
zero here, because this stream goes to a feedlot, not a skip
what you actually get paid for it, feed at R240 a tonne is 0.24
Is the fix worth it
Two traps. The first is costing the disposal and calling it the cost. The second
is annualising a single day without checking that the day was typical, which is how a business case
quietly doubles. Use your real production days and say in the paper which day the figure came from.
