Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Is this an accounting profit calculator?

No. It is a cash-flow planning estimate for one invoice, not a replacement for bookkeeping or tax accounting.

What expenses should I enter?

Enter direct costs tied to the invoice, such as materials, subcontractors, or project-specific fees, if you want them included.

Why reserve for tax?

A reserve can help separate money that may be needed later from cash that appears available immediately.
