Hydraulic Hose Kit Cost at 99% complete kit usage share: a worked example

Push complete kit usage share up to 99% and the picture changes. This example computes every intermediate figure at that operating point. a farm machinery engineer or buyer needs to estimate hydraulic hose kit cost for a machine model or attachment

The inputs for this scenario

  • Hydraulic hose assemblies: 18 hoses (unchanged)
  • Average hose assembly cost: 46 $ / hose (unchanged)
  • Complete kit usage share: 99 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 96)
  • Fittings, clamps, tags, and packaging: 135 $ (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Captured hose assembly cost = hose assemblies × average hose assembly cost × complete kit usage share) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 955 $ hose kit cost for hydraulic hose kit cost, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 53.04 $ / hose for average hose assembly cost.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 820 $ hose kit cost for captured hose assembly cost.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 135 $ for fittings, clamps, tags, and packaging.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where complete kit usage share sits at 96% and the headline result is 930 $ hose kit cost, this scenario comes in 2.67% above the baseline at 955 $ hose kit cost.
  • It prices a hydraulic hose kit: assembly count times average hose cost times the kit usage share, plus the fixed cost of fittings, clamps, tags, and packaging. The value of this scenario is the size of the gap it exposes: that gap, priced out over a year, is the budget you can justify spending to close it.

Results at a glance

  • Hydraulic hose kit cost: 955 $ hose kit cost (headline result)
  • Average hose assembly cost: 53.04 $ / hose
  • Captured hose assembly cost: 820 $ hose kit cost
  • Fittings, clamps, tags, and packaging: 135 $
