- Sample A: With the same hours and entered costs, revenue would need to rise by $522.73 to reach your chosen $100.00 hourly target. Compare a scope change, fewer delivery hours, or a revised quote before deciding.
How the numbers work
Overhead is allocated in proportion to project hours, with fractional cents distributed so the allocations exactly match the total. Contribution equals revenue minus direct costs minus allocated overhead. Effective hourly rate equals contribution divided by hours. A target gap describes arithmetic, not a forecast.
This report analyzes the amounts and time you supplied. It does not verify invoices, collect payments, estimate taxes, or include costs you did not enter. The target hourly rate is your input, not a promised or recommended market rate.
