Seems excessive to me...if it costs you .29 to print a page, I suggest getting a newer printer. That is what the retailers charge you with a markup...same with the vehicle. IRS gives you 54.5 cents a mile 2018which includes wear and tear on your taxes. You use your car for everyday, so hard to work all the expense costs into that. Just saying it's seems a bit inflated and better cost calculator out there for what we do. I can't remember a few years ago who posted one, but seemed more accurate. Case of paper is $30.00 / 5,000 pages is .06, then toner/printer round it up to .10 we print say 150 pages x 2= $3.00 for the loan package I make a profit off $100.00 closings but it's not anything to write home about. I get the point you are making, but not quite accurate. My biggest expense is the tolls going to and from, sometimes as high as $6.00 a signing, and no way around it...that is what takes the biggest bite out of my closing profits. |
