Re: eMachineShop - Allowed, Right?

To clarify what Adam Y. said, if a team outsources labor but gets it for free or for a discount, the team must account for the normal price of the service, or the price that anyone else could get the service for. It's in the rules.
Now I actually didn't realize about the service being added to the budget (I'm sure my team did). Now my question is, how would a team figure out the cost for the service if a company dosen't normally offer services to make custom parts. In otherwords my shop I work for usually does eyelit toolmakeing, progressive toolmakeing, and some press work. But during the season if our team asked for their help my company would usually have me or another apprentice or a tool maker who isn't too busy do the job. How would a team figure out the service fees if the company is only makeing the part as a favor to the team?..
I'm assumeing it would be the
(hourly pay)(hours worked on the part) + (material cost) ?
