For purchase of Cat 1 DELTA HOOK RAPID 3 POINT HITCH SYSTEM

Assuming the following:

1. That user is a business owner with employees.
2. That the tractor operator also changes implements.
3. That the hourly cost of the tractor operator is $11.00 per hour plus overhead (FICA, insurance, vacation, equipment amortization, travel time and other incidentals) is $13.00 per hour totaling $24.00/hour.
4. That the average time to change an implement is 25 minutes without the Delta Hook™ Rapid 3-Point Hitch System and time to change implements with the Delta Hook™ is an average of 1.5 minutes.
5. That the implements are changed an average of 25 times per week.

Without the Delta Hook™ Rapid 3-Point Hitch System the cost for changing implements would be $11.00/hour + $13.00/hr overhead multiplied by .41667 hours (25 minutes divided by 60 minutes) times 25 changes per week equals $250.00.

The time saved per week utilizing the Delta Hook Rapid 3 Point Hitch System is .39167 hours (25 minutes minus 1.5 minutes divided by 60 minutes) multiplied by 25 changes per week equals 9.79 hours. Weekly savings would be 9.79 hours times $24.00 = $234.96 per week.

Assume 1 control plate and 3 receiver plates are purchased. The cost to the business owner would be $1144.00.

The Delta Hook Rapid 3 Point Hitch System would pay for itself in 6 weeks!
