buyback-rate
Computes the owner's **Buy Back Rate** — the dollar value of one hour of their time — then turns a two-week time-and-energy audit into a ranked list of exactly which tasks to offload first, routing each to **AI/automation before a human hire**. It is the quantitative front-end to delegation: `delegation` coaches the human handoff; this skill produces the number and the ranked target list that tell you *what* to hand off and *to what*.
Inputs
- income — Annual income basis = profit + owner salary + business expenses (the value the owner's 2,000 working hours produce).
- time_log — A task time-log (manual table, or exported from ai-work-audit / time-tracking-reporter). One row per recurring task with rough weekly hours.
- income — Income basis for the rate. If omitted, the audit reports relative ranking only (no dollar threshold).
