Freelance Rate & Scope
Turn a target salary into an hourly rate with overhead and margin, and estimate a project's hours and cost with t-shirt sizes.
From annual salary, hours and time off to an hourly rate. Overhead is added to the base rate, then profit margin is applied to the price. All working hours are treated as billable.
Overhead is added to the base rate (salary / billable hours), then profit margin is applied to the resulting price. There is no separate non-billable time input: every hour you enter is treated as billable.

Rate Breakdown
Size each task and get optimistic, expected and pessimistic hours and cost, using fixed 0.8x and 1.5x multipliers. A planning aid, not a forecast.
Optimistic and pessimistic are fixed 0.8x and 1.5x multipliers of the summed task sizes, shown for planning. The expected row is the base estimate. They are not statistical bounds.
