Labor $630.00 at $90.00/hr

The formula, in plain English

Actual cost = materials + (hours × burdened labor rate). Margin dollars = bid − actual cost. Margin percent = margin dollars ÷ bid. If you only have a wage, load it first on the labor burden calculator.

This is a sketch. CostPerJob keeps bid + costs on the job scorecard.
