Calculate the hourly costs for a tractor worth $100,000 with a 10,000 hour lifespan and 5% interest.

The `calculate_hourly_costs` tool has processed your request. The fixed cost per hour includes depreciation and interest based on the $100,000 value over 10,000 hours.

If my machine costs $50 per hour and covers 2 hectares per hour, what is the cost for a 500-hectare field?

Using `calculate_area_impact`, the cost per hectare is $25. For a 500-hectare area, the total estimated cost is $12,500.

Compare owning a machine at $40/ha vs hiring a contractor at $45/ha for 1000 hectares.

The `compare_ownership_models` tool recommends 'Keep Owned', as you will save $5,000 over the 1,000-hectare area.

The `calculate_hourly_costs` tool calculates both fixed costs (depreciation, interest, insurance, and shelter) and variable costs (fuel consumption and maintenance) to provide a complete hourly operational rate.
