Enter how much you want to earn a month and I'll tell you how many jobs you need at calculated price of $1.58 — and whether they fit in the month.
Right now you make$25.20per month.
Each line projects a full month assuming that change repeats every month: month 2 grows on month 1, not on today. At the calculated price of $1.58 and 40 jobs a month, today you bill $63.20 and it costs you $38.00. To compare scenarios, press Plot on the rows of "What if…?", just above.

Annual inflation on your costs
At 0%: the projection assumes your costs stay put for six months. If you know they will rise, put it here.
Raising or lowering your price and cost increases land once and stay: they are a new level, not a change that repeats. Doing more or fewer jobs does compound month by month, because that is growing or shrinking. The steady rise in costs is the inflation above.
A scenario only plots its cost curve when it pulls away from today's: raising your price costs you nothing extra, but doing more jobs does push up products and fuel, and that is where you see it. None of this deducts taxes, drawings or the cost of buying another unit.
In month 1. That is the cash you actually need.
You invested nothing on day one.
Billed and still not collected by month 6.
With whatever inflation you set above. Costs are paid in the month they happen: no supplier terms and no taxes. The loan instalment goes in as a flat figure: it is not amortised, so it never ends on its own and does not split principal from interest.
| Month | Billed | Collected | Paid | Balance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Month 1 | $63.20 | $63.20 | − $38.00 | $25.20 |
| Month 2 | $63.20 | $63.20 | − $38.00 | $50.40 |
| Month 3 | $63.20 | $63.20 | − $38.00 | $75.60 |
| Month 4 | $63.20 | $63.20 | − $38.00 | $100.80 |
| Month 5 | $63.20 | $63.20 | − $38.00 | $126.00 |
| Month 6 | $63.20 | $63.20 | − $38.00 | $151.20 |

Profitable service
Your price delivers a healthy margin.
A solid margin for a mobile service, which saves on premises and can sustain it: it covers costs, absorbs surprises and leaves room to grow.
Margin is the share of the price that is profit (profit / price), unlike markup (profit / cost). Here it is measured against your total cost, which already includes labour, products, travel and your business overheads.
