Business Freelance Hourly Rate Calculator

Freelance Hourly Rate Calculator

Work out the hourly rate you need to charge to hit your target income, after accounting for time off and business overhead.

Software, taxes, insurance, etc.

Not every work hour is billable

How to use this calculator

Enter your target annual income, subtract vacation/sick days from your total working days to get billable days, and set how many hours per day you can realistically bill (not every hour of a workday is billable). Overhead accounts for taxes, software, insurance, and other business costs on top of your income goal. The result is the hourly rate needed to hit your target after all of that.
