Frequently asked questions
What does this calculator tell me?
It helps answer a simple business question: What does one product really cost me? Enter the best figures you have, then review the result and visual before deciding.
Can I use estimates instead of exact figures?
Yes. Start with your best estimate, then change assumptions to see how sensitive the answer is. Better inputs produce a better decision.
Can I compare more than one option?
Yes. Save one option, change the assumptions, save another, and compare the results side by side.
