This is a project planning summary, not an invoice, a binding offer, or a tax determination. Confirm scope, costs, and applicable tax before sending a final quote.

THE THINKING BEHIND THE PRICE

Make room for the whole project.

A healthy price starts with everything the project costs you, including the parts that are easy to overlook.

  1. Add the work and its costs.Labor is billable hours multiplied by hourly cost. Add materials, subcontractors, and the overhead allocated to this project.
  2. Work backward from a margin.Price = total entered cost ÷ (1 − margin). At a 30% margin, 1,400 of costs needs a 2,000 price; adding 30% to cost would produce a different margin.
  3. Compare before you commit.Save one set of assumptions as A and another as B. Compare hours, cost, pre-tax price, profit, and the effective selling rate.
  4. Turn the numbers into a next step.Export or print the planning summary. Check the actual scope, currency, and local tax treatment before preparing a final client quote.
