58 weeks to work out labour.
Because a driver is entitled to 5.6 weeks leave in a year, so for 5.6 weeks you will be paying twice.
52 weeks to work out costs.
Because even if there is no one in the truck it still needs paying for.
50 weeks to project income.
Because if you have holiday cover the only time the truck can’t earn is when it’s in for planned maintenance. So if we say half a day for an inspection or service and two days for MOT prep and test you get 6.5 days plus the remaining 7.5 days for the slack periods where the truck will earn 3-4 days money for 5 days work. After all, it’s better to break even or even lose £500 on a slack week than to not work it at all and lose a grand for the week.
