If you tend to charge by the hour, you'll find this calculator very useful

I must have done something wrong. It said I should be charging $407 per hour.

Good find, well done Jeff. A worthwhile pre-audition exercise.

I don't need a calculator to tell me I'm not charging enough! Smile

Gee, I just spent 10 minutes doing a $2,000 job, so that works out to $12,000 an hour. I may be charging too much. Oh dear.

An hour a day (like that) is all I ask.
