How to use Project Price Calculator

1. Enter the estimated hours and your hourly rate.
2. Add extra costs (tools, subcontractors).
3. Add a buffer/margin for scope changes and risk.
4. See the price to quote.

Examples

• 40 hours at $60 plus $200 costs and a 15% buffer ≈ a $2,990 quote.
• Adding a bigger buffer for an unclear brief.

Supported formats

• Base = hours × rate + extra costs; price = base × (1 + buffer%)

Limitations

• Estimate hours generously — projects usually take longer than expected.
• Fixed-price work needs a bigger buffer than hourly.
