Freelance rate & tax set-asideMicromedia Digital

What’s your day rate, and how much of each payment do you put aside?

Type the income you want and your costs. You get a floor rate, a quote builder, and a pot that tracks each payment against the due dates you enter. You choose the set-aside %; this tool never does.

How to use it (30 seconds)

  1. Rate finder: type the income you want, your costs, your weeks off and billable hours, and the set-aside % you’ve chosen. Your floor rate appears at the top.
  2. Quote builder: enter a job’s estimate, add a buffer and a fixed-fee premium, and print a one-page quote.
  3. Payments and tax pot: log each payment. Your % moves to the pot and the rest is yours to spend. Add your due dates to see if the pot covers the next one.
  4. Everything saves on this device. Use Export for a backup file and Import to load it on another device.

The set-aside % and due dates are yours to set. This tool doesn’t calculate tax; ask a tax professional.
