The next step is to determine operator and maintenance personnel costs by applying
the above MLH and Maintenance Action values, and the individual cost factors stated
in the problem. The results are given in Table 10.
For corrective maintenance at the intermediate level, onehalf of the maintenance
labor hours are at $20 per hour and onehalf are at $30 per hour.
Maintenance facility costs are based on the total corrective and preventive
maintenance labor hours at the intermediate facility multiplied by the given burden
rate (for each configuration).
Maintenance data costs are based on the number of corrective and preventive
maintenance actions multiplied by the dollar rate per maintenance action.
