If you are bored and have Excel on your computer, here is a semi-user friendly spreadsheet that compares two divers that have to switch to their "Bail Out" bottles at 100 fsw.
The user can input:
1) The size of the bail out bottle (cubic feet)
2) The ascent rate (feet per minute)
3) Diver breathing rate (breaths per minute) which is used to calculate SAC (both divers have the same lung capacity of .058 cf)
The results are plotted on a graph that shows "Minutes of Gas Remaining" vs depth.
Download the Excel format of "Bail Out Comparison" or click on the HTML format to see an example.
Here's the Link.
