LevelPennyby Carina Dataworks

Know your price. Know your profit per hour.

Made by professionals, for professionals. Built by someone who does real-world business operations, profit and data work every day.

Enter your costs — materials, crew, travel, card fees, overhead — and get the price to quote for the margin or hourly profit you want. Or check what an existing job really pays.

1 Price

The total on your quote or invoice, before any sales tax you collect.

Fill in your costs below. We'll find the lowest price that hits your target after fees, overhead and tax set-aside.

Quote this price—

Customer & job site (used on estimates and invoices)
2 Materials
3 Labor & time

Crew you pay by the hour. Employees carry a labor burden on top of their wage (payroll taxes, workers' comp, benefits); 1099 subcontractors don't.

Employee cost (labor burden)

Example rates — edit them. Real rates depend on your state, trade, insurer and payroll setup. Check with your accountant or payroll provider; this is not tax advice. Applies to employees only, never to your own hours or 1099 subcontractors.

Per diem or travel pay is entered per person above.

Quoting, driving, buying materials, working on site, invoicing. Not a cost — your pay comes out of profit, which is the point.

4 Shipping, delivery & travel

Fuel + wear. The IRS standard rate is a good default.

5 Card & payment fees

e.g. 2 for deposit + final.

6 Equipment, permits, subs & other
7 Overhead & tax set-aside optional

Insurance, truck payment, phone, software, shop rent — spread across jobs.

Share of profit to park for taxes. Only applies when you make a profit.
