Free tool / your time

What does your work pay per hour?

Enter revenue or take-home earnings and all the hours behind the work. Use one service, event, batch, or period for every entry. Free. No sign-in needed.

01 / Money and time

Count all the work

Use what remains after your recorded business costs. No further costs are deducted here.

Work time for the same period

Use decimal hours: 30 minutes = 0.5 hours. Enter 0 when a task does not apply.

Shopping, ingredients, and preparation.

Selling, serving, or delivering the food.

Cleaning, packing down, and washing up.

Planning, messages, and paperwork.

02 / Your recorded return

Effective hourly wage

Hourly wage unavailable

Enter the amount and all four work times. Use 0 for time you did not spend.

Prep, service, cleanup, and administration all belong in the time you count.

The math

Your time has a cost.

Total hours = prep + service + cleanup + administration

Effective hourly wage = recorded amount ÷ total hours

For example, $300 in take-home earnings ÷ (3 prep + 5 service + 1 cleanup + 1 administration) hours = $30 per hour.

A quick estimate from your recorded numbers

This tool divides the amount you enter by your total time. It does not deduct costs or taxes. Revenue per hour is not take-home pay. Net earnings are only as complete as the costs you have already recorded.

ProvisionMap accounts for yield, spoilage, labor, overhead, taxes, and transaction costs in the full calculator, so you can see what the work actually leaves you.
