Software Development Cost Calculator — FAQs
Fixed price or time & materials?
T&M with a capped budget beats fixed price — fixed quotes carry 20–30% risk padding and punish scope learning.
What's loaded rate?
Salary + employer NI + pension + equipment + desk + downtime. A £60k salaried dev costs ~£95k loaded — about £430/day.
