First Quarter - against filed figures of $365,000.00 which disregard the
KRS 360. statute interest rate.
The D-4 Cat dozer work is itemized by hours separately.
This does not include the intermittant hired dozer hours.
1975 60 hours Dozer = 6.749% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1976 194 hours Dozer = 21.82% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1977 152 hours Dozer = 17.09% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1978 109 hours Dozer = 12.261% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1979 70 hours Dozer = 7.874% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1980 4 hours Dozer = .45% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1981 10 hours Dozer = 1.12% of total 889 Dozer hours.
1987 290 hours Dozer = 32.62% of total 889 Dozer hours.
___________
889 hours
Dozer bill = $24,360.00
interest = $24,048.83
Total = $48,408.83
889 dozer hours = 10.0988% of total 8803 labor hours.
The dozer allowed the cropping and the later lease, and resulting income.
The hours in a year normally given over to work may vary from a
fifty-two week year of fourty hour weeks, that is five eight hour
days (5/8), up to the sixty hour week, which is six ten-hour
days (6/10). This is a ratio of 2080 hours : 3120 hours.
Each year series below is compared by percentages to the two
types of work-years above. Each year is compared to the total.
Year total hours percent of the work-year
1975 1338 42 % of (6/10 year) 64 % of (5/8 year)
1976 777 24.9% of (6/10 year) 37 % of (5/8 year)
1977 664 21.28% of (6/10 year) 31.92% of (5/8 year)
1978 482 15.44% of (6/10 year) 23.17% of (5/8 year)
1979 385 12.339% of (6/10 year) 18.5% of (5/8 year)
1980 144 4.62% of (6/10 year) 6.92% of (5/8 year)
1980 This year was taken up with cropping, for which time is not billed.
1981 197 6.31% of (6/10 year) 9.47% of (5/8 year)
1982-
1984 134 4.29% of (6/10 year) 6.44% of (5/8 year)
1985 470 15 % of (6/10 year) 22.5% of (5/8 year)
1986 580 18.589% of (6/10 year) 27.88% of (5/8 year)
1987 1893 60.667% of (6/10 year) 91 % of (5/8 year)
1988 1351 43.30% of (6/10 year) 64.95% of (5/8 year)
1989 388 12.44% of (6/10 year) 18.65% of (5/8 year)
The series of years 1972-1975 are consolidated, as the
reference points in time from which the record was recreated
are less well defined in the earliest years. The years 1982-
1984 are also consolidated. Interest costs are compared to the
direct cost.
The work enumerated is not farm work, such as row crop production,
and it is not logging production. Crop labor is a different type
of labor, defined by the market-place. Labor rates are listed
in a separate chart.

The following list is a tabulation of material receipts
representing expendatures on the farm house, the farm and the business
and is filed in probate. The second column is the value of the present
use of future money, based on the KY statutes. It is an incomplete list,
because many records disappeared, but it gives you the idea.
misc5.dat $8436.94 : $19,008.80 =
The two checkbooks records which have survived pretty
much at random. From this we get a ratio of uses of moneys.
The ratio of farm expenses to personal expenses is 92.8% : 7.2 %.
That is that 92 cents from every dollar went
into the Hedges Farm. Where are those dollars now.? Therefore,
expenditures of 92.8% could and would have been diverted to other uses,
except for the responsibility of the Hedges Farm.
Personal fuel cost was also placed at 7% based on the account
figures. The funds spent during this period came from the GI
Bill for College, savings from prior employment, liquidation of
race car parts, and misc random income of Robert Hedges.
The percentage figures are safety checks for erroneous data.
Total Column = $122,214.50 ($122,215.25 from ALL.DAT)

The following three sets of figures are the west ridge itemized-labor
computed as minimum wage, 5.00 per hour labor and 6.00 per hour labor.
The resulting percentage-ratio is then used as a check for accuracy
of the entire set of programs.
