    Now I'm going to completely mess you up:

    Annual pleasure = AP
    The things I like about the woods = T
    How much better it is to hang than to use a tent = B
    Number of times I hang each month = M
    Pleasure per hang = PH

    AP = T x B
    PH = AP / (M x 12)

    Finally put in the time to do some research, and came up with the results in the post linked below. I think it will answer some of your questions:

    My equation looks a little something like this:

    Dutch + (PayPal - some $) = no effort
