Project Quote And Fixed Price Estimator
Project Quote And Fixed Price: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers optimistic hours (h). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.
Project Quote And Fixed Price Estimator is a planned calculator in the business section of Super Calculator, covering freelance and work.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: optimistic hours (h), likely hours (h), pessimistic hours (h), hourly rate (currency/h), contingency (%), expenses (currency) and margin (%).
Outputs: expected hours (h), standard deviation (h), quoted price (currency) and price range (currency).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Quote equals estimated hours times rate, inflated by a contingency factor and a scope risk multiplier, plus pass-through costs and a margin. Three-point PERT estimation (optimistic plus four times likely plus pessimistic, divided by six) is the defensible way to set the hour estimate.
