How it works

Hourly contracts multiply rate by billable hours. Project contracts use the entered amount. Expenses reduce business income; payment frequency provides an annualized comparison. No employee withholding is assumed.

Example

A $2,000 project with $300 expenses leaves $1,700 before taxes.
