I think the ag economist of every ag college in the country have a program or advise on how to figure farm machinery costs. But they usually add things like interest and lost opportunity costs, like what could you have made by investing this money in something else.

Here is some stuff from Iowa and Illinois and I'll bet Texas A&M has some too.
