Why do you want to get a divorce and/or realize that flying is expensive? Is your wife making you do this? Blink once for yes, twice for no if under duress.

Cleared for Takeoff
For most of us, flying is a hobby we love. I have an idea how much I spend but I really do not want to know.

I brutally track expenses in my life, except for flying. Everywhere else I enjoy the efficiency and optimization of it. If I did the same thing for flying it would probably just make me sad.
Do you have a spreadsheet to track what your children cost? Your spouse? If so, just use the same one. If not, why would you want to have one for your airplane?

I will say the one thing I do track is capital improvements to the plane. When it comes time to sell having that for tax purposes will be useful.

@Fatherof2 I don't want to take away from all the great advice given but, I do have a spreadsheet that tracks Time/Life of parts. If you add a column with prices well, that's you decision.
This spreadsheet format is www.libreoffice.org/ . LibreOffice is a well maintained Office Suite and I've been using for several years. This forum software does not allow .ods format sharing so look at the .pdf and if you think it will work I'll have to e-mail the .ods.

This too! Having a sheet with part lifetimes is also useful for sharing with mechanics and double checking their findings. I've had maintenance recommended due to the IA missing a replacement logbook entry; much easier to fixup if you have summary sheets.
The court gave me that. All filled out and everything.
