Figuring labor...ha! That's nonsense. Just think of it as a one man brewery. Labor doesn't factor for an owner. They only make as much as the brewery makes. Since we as homebrewers can't sell then labor doesn't matter. Labor only matters if you take time off your day job.
My own cost analysis. $10+ for six craft beer = $80+ for two cases. Homebrew batch $(40 ingredients + 4 propane + 2 water/cleaning) = $46. That could be much lower with bulk buys, reusing yeast, etc.
