How to Calculate the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

21 February 2019 (Thursday)

“When looking to acquire an asset, many of us make the mistake of focusing on the original purchase price, while ignoring the costs associated with owning that asset. As such, a $25,000 car can end up costing us over $50,000 over its useful life once we factor in maintenance, spare parts, insurance and fueling costs.
The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is a tool to help us calculate the real cost associated with owning an asset, be it a car, factory or software solution. Join us on this free webinar where we provide a step-by-step walkthrough on how TCO is calculated.
