Capacity, Labor & Delivery Cost
Understand what it costs to deliver your work—and how much capacity you actually have.
Delivery time for one unit of work.
What the delivery hour costs you — not what you bill.
Fixed monthly costs: rent, software, salaries, insurance.
Expected demand you plan to deliver this month.
The most you could deliver in a month at full stretch.
Share of maximum capacity you realistically plan to use.
Cost to deliver and capacity
Fill in every field above — results update as you type. Expected units and maximum capacity must be greater than zero.
Total delivery cost per unit (before profit)
—
Direct labor plus allocated overhead. This is a cost to deliver, not a price or a margin.
Direct labor cost per unit
—
Hours required multiplied by your hourly labor cost.
Allocated overhead per unit
—
Monthly overhead spread across your expected monthly delivered volume.
Effective monthly capacity
—
Maximum capacity adjusted by planned utilization — the realistic amount available to deliver.
Planned monthly workload
—
Expected demand you intend to deliver — this is demand, not available capacity.
Remaining capacity
—
Effective capacity still available after planned workload.
Capacity utilization
—
Expected workload as a share of maximum monthly capacity.
This is a delivery cost and capacity view only. Because no selling price is entered, it does not calculate profit margin or break-even volume. Treat the readings above as a prompt to investigate further, not universal financial advice.
