What happens here

Once all labor, equipment, and material components are added to their respective work areas, input the specific quantities for each item. This includes man-hours for labor, days of use for equipment (e.g., 'Landscape Truck & Trailer', 'Mini Skid Steer'), and specific quantities for materials (e.g., 'Geo Fabric', 'Stone', 'Landscape Edging'). As quantities are entered, LMN provides real-time updates on key financial metrics: total man-hours, total cost, break-even cost, and the total price to the client. This allows for immediate assessment of profitability.

Goal: Quantify resources and assess the financial viability of the estimate in real-time.
