Hourly rate calculator
Calculate a minimum and target hourly rate from income, costs, billable time and a safety buffer.
Compare margin, markup, profit and the price needed for a target margin.
Margin measures profit as a share of price. Markup measures profit relative to cost, so the percentages are not interchangeable.
With a cost of 1,000 and price of 1,500, profit is 500, margin is 33.3% and markup is 50%.
Before offering a discount, check the resulting margin rather than the discount amount alone.
