upfront ÷ net marginSimple payback answers: at this unchanged daily net, how long until the rig repays its upfront cost? The sensitivity grid is the honest part — difficulty growth and price swings move the net, and the "never" row is a real outcome worth planning for.
| scenario | net $/day | simple payback | net per $ of upfront / yr |
|---|---|---|---|
| net −40% | $1.98 | 1516 d | 24% |
| net −20% | $2.64 | 1137 d | 32% |
| your net | $3.30 | 910 d | 40% |
| net +20% | $3.96 | 758 d | 48% |
| net +40% | $4.62 | 650 d | 56% |
Simple payback = upfront ÷ operating NET (never gross). It is a comparison ratio between scenarios — not a promise: difficulty growth, price moves, repairs, and hardware resale all bend the curve after day one.
