    How this works

    Total working hours = performance + prep + travel + setup/teardown. Expenses = assistant + rentals + travel + other + overhead. Remaining = fee − expenses. Effective hourly = remaining ÷ total hours.

    Fee to hit target = expenses + (desired hourly × total hours), shown only when you enter both a desired rate and working hours.

    Empty fields count as zero. With zero total hours, hourly earnings show as a dash. These are estimates before taxes and any costs you didn't enter. They don't establish market rates or guarantee profit.
