Formula and methodology
Formula: rate = (salary + costs) / billable hours.
Divide everything you must earn by hours clients actually pay for. Using 2080 instead of true billable hours is the classic underpricing mistake.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Target annual salary — minimum 0; maximum 1000000000000
- Annual business costs — Taxes, insurance, tools, time off buffer.; minimum 0; maximum 1000000000000
- Billable hours per year — Realistic billable hours, not 2080.; minimum 1; maximum 4000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Target annual salary | 80000 |
| Annual business costs | 20000 |
| Billable hours per year | 1000 |
100.00 per billable hour.
Assumptions and limits
- Billable hours exclude admin, sales, and leave.

- Costs are annual totals in the same currency.
