Understanding Your Costs

Weekly Consulting & Support Services

We have integrity and are transparent about how our fees are calculated:

Base Line Annual Fee

$AF

First, we take our base line annual fee for the work you require. Sometimes, this will be accepted based on your operating budget for the role.

Add Consulting Fees, Payroll Taxes & Employee Benefits (PTEB) at 42%

$AF x 1.42

Industry standard has this percent between 35% - 50%. We meet you in the middle at 42%.

What does this 42% include?

PTEB is generally accepted at approximately 30%. Typically, this amount is found in your budget already in your HR line.
Our consulting fee is set at 12% to meet you in the middle of the industry standard. This may fluctuate depending on the project/assignment.

Divide by 48 weeks per year

($AF x 1.42)/48

Why not 52? It is not realistic to assume that all contracts are back-to-back. Therefore, we must allocate for 4 weeks of unpaid time annually to account for time between contracts.

Final Weekly Consulting & Support Services Fee

$WCSS

The calculation above allows us to find this weekly fee which you will see on your invoice.

Costs of Doing Business

These are separate and in addition to the Weekly Consulting & Support Services. Typically, these are submitted through your company's preferred expense tracking system on a weekly basis. These will be your costs of doing business and should be allocated to lower your annual taxable income. Scottspitality, LLC does not submit these on taxes as their costs.
