Overhead is added to take-home, then tax grosses that total up. The default 15.3 is the United States self-employment rate and the field can change. Multipliers use the hourly figure before rounding. 90000, 220 days, 6 hours, overhead 30, tax 15.3 is a day rate of 628.

Why this exists

Proposals and admin never become a billable day. Dividing take-home by calendar days leaves that time out.

The default 15.3 is the United States self-employment rate. Another country’s rate goes in the tax field. The numbers stay in this browser.

How this page works it out

Overhead is added to take-home first. Take-home 90000 plus overhead of 30 percent is 117000. Tax then grosses that total up. The default 15.3 percent is the United States self-employment rate, so the divisor is 0.847. Before overhead the gross is 106257. After overhead it is 138135.

Billable days of 220 times 6 hours a day make 1320 hours. Dividing 138135 by 1320 gives hourly 105, and dividing by 220 gives a day rate of 628. 1.5 times is 157, 2 times is 209, and 2.5 times is 262. Multipliers use the hourly figure before it is rounded.

Unbilled time stays outside the day count. Another country’s rate goes in the tax field. The numbers stay in this browser.
