Launch labor is the cost of the labor required to launch a stage of the spacecraft. Launch labor ranges from one hundred fifty dollars for a seven kilogram model to eight million for a Saturn V class stage. Given launch hours, labor rate and location labor multiplier launch labor can be calculated which is in turn used to calculate launch cost and total launch labor.

launch labor = labor rate * launch hours * location labor multiplier

launch cost = fuel cost + launch labor + launch structure

total launch labor ( third stage ) = total launch labor ( second stage ) + launch labor ( third stage )
 

This is used in spacecraft cost.
