MarginJob, a calculator for pricing the work behind the quote
A browser-based set of calculators for contractors and small service crews, covering job profit, markup, labor burden, and change orders.
Field notes
The calculators make several often-blended pricing layers visible: direct job cost, overhead, target margin, and labor burden. The markup tool explicitly displays the distinction between a markup percentage and a margin percentage, while the labor tool accounts for payroll taxes, workers’ compensation, benefits, and paid non-working time. The change-order workflow asks users to isolate only the extra work and presents direct cost, overhead, and profit separately.
