Formula and assumptions

How the calculator works

Labor Cost = (Service Minutes + Drive/Admin Minutes) / 60 × Crew Size × Loaded Labor Rate Total Cost = Labor + Equipment/Fuel + Overhead Suggested Price = Total Cost / (1 - Target Margin)

Common mistakes this catches

  • Pricing only the mowing time, not drive/admin time.
  • Forgetting equipment, fuel, insurance, routing gaps, and overhead.
  • Setting recurring prices too low for small or isolated stops.
