Form: price calculation for a locksmith task

From costs to price with open eyes

§3. Contribution margin and price

The price must cover the company's fixed costs and your salary beyond direct expenses: car, insurance, tool renewal, further education, telephone/IT, accountant, pension, vacation and sick leave. Calculate backwards: annual fixed costs + desired annual salary, divided by a realistic number of billable tasks per year, gives the contribution margin EACH task must deliver.
