FREE Labor Cost Worksheet
With the help of James R. Leichter (Mr. HVAC), UMKC's school of business, Small Business and Technology Development Center (SBTDC), Aptora Corporation has developed an accurate and easy to use labor cost worksheet. This worksheet will allow service managers and contracting business owners to calculate the proper retail price of labor in just minutes without advanced accounting knowledge or financial reports. We now include a spreadsheet version (MS Excel required) in addition to the paper worksheet. You may get it here.

The intended audience is service technicians, service managers, and owners of HVAC, plumbing, and electrical companies.
