title: 'costdecade: Price Durability by the Decade, Not the Receipt'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: A cheap tool replaced three times costs more than the dear one bought once,
  but nobody does that arithmetic at the shelf. costdecade() ranks buy-it-for-life
  candidates by real cost per decade, finds the exact lifespan where the dear option
  starts winning, and totals the spend over a full ownership horizon with replacement
  inflation and resale. Companion to the cost-per-decade reviews on DurablePicks <https://durablepicks.com>.
