Resources / Cost & capacity calculator

YOUR NUMBERS / YOUR ASSUMPTIONS

Explore the cost.
See the capacity.

What could a change in software mean for your firm?

Compare recurring costs and transition spend, then explore potential time released. Cash impact and team capacity stay separate so you can assess both clearly.

AUD excluding GST. Scenario planning, not a Bunya quote or a prediction. Inputs start at zero; enter your figures or load the fictional example.

01 / Recurring costs

Use monthly totals for equivalent scope. Include retained tools in both sides where they remain necessary.

Include licences, usage and support for the scope being compared.
Include new services, retained tools, Microsoft licences, usage and support.
02 / Transition
Include build, migration, training and any period of overlapping subscriptions.
Recurring costs are held constant across the period.
03 / Potential team capacity

Optional. Model one repeatable workflow across the whole team. Include checking and correction time in your estimate.

Total across the team, not hours per person.
Your scenario assumption. Validate through a pilot; no reduction is guaranteed.
Weeks when this workflow is performed.
Optional: salary and on-costs per hour. This values capacity, not cash savings.

HOW TO READ THE RESULTS

Transparent inputs.
Separate outcomes.

Cash comparison

Annual recurring difference = (current monthly cost − proposed monthly cost) × 12.

Period difference = annual recurring difference × years − one-off transition costs. Positive means a lower proposed cash cost; negative means a higher proposed cash cost.

Simple payback = transition cost ÷ positive monthly difference. This assumes immediate savings and excludes time value of money, price changes and unentered costs.

Capacity estimate

Annual hours released = weekly workflow hours × reduction percentage × working weeks.

Illustrative capacity value = hours released × loaded hourly cost. This is a way to value team time, not an additional cash return.

Test the whole workflow before accepting a time-saving assumption. Keep unknown costs visible rather than treating them as zero in a buying decision.
