The room for the negotiation lies between them; the chart under the hours shows, for every rate, what the client saves and what the freelancer nets on top."},"faq":{"title":"Frequently asked questions","q1":"How do I work out my hourly rate as a freelancer?","a1":"Most easily from the position you would otherwise have: its annual cost to the employer, divided by the hours you actually work. A full-time position costing {budget} a year in total costs {satz} per productive hour in {y}, {tag} a day. For the same net as employed you need {gleich} an hour, if every hour can be billed. If you know your target net, enter it in the engagement: the calculator finds the rate that brings it after SVS and income tax.","q2":"How do I convert a salary into an hourly rate?","a2":"Not by dividing by the hours of the working week, but the position's cost by the hours actually worked. In the example above that comes to {faktor} times the gross hourly wage: the employer pays payroll levies and the salary on holidays, during leave and sick leave, while an engagement is paid only for hours worked.","q3":"How many hours a year can a freelancer bill?","a3":"At {vz} hours a week, {y} leaves about {stunden} hours after public holidays, {wochen} weeks of leave and the average sick leave. With {nvPct} % going to sales, quotes and bookkeeping it is about {stundenNv}. Set the utilisation under hours a year.","q4":"Is the rate net or gross, with or without VAT?","a4":"The rates here exclude VAT. Above the small-business threshold of {grenze} turnover a year ({basis}), {ust} % is added; a business client reclaims it as input tax, so the comparison uses the net rate. For private clients the gross amount is the price. Small businesses cannot reclaim input tax, so their expenses count including VAT.","q5":"How many hours does a day rate cover?","a5":"Usually a full working day, so {tagH} hours on a {vz}-hour week. The calculator takes a fifth of the full-time week; you can set another value in the engagement, such as 7.7 hours at 38.5 hours a week.","q6":"How much more than an employee does a freelancer need to charge?","a6":"For the same net as employed, the example above needs {gleich} an hour, {faktorGleich} times the gross hourly wage, if every hour can be billed. If {nvPct} % of the time goes to sales and admin, it is {gleichNv}, {faktorGleichNv} times. That covers own social insurance, holidays and illness nobody pays for, and own expenses; a margin for profit and risk comes on top.","q7":"Is an external consultant cheaper for a company than an employee?","a7":"It depends on the rate, compared for the same work: the hours a position actually works in a year. In the example above the position costs {satz} per productive hour in {y}; any lower rate saves the company money. On top comes what the position costs beyond pay, such as workplace, equipment and administration, and on short projects the hiring, which then falls on a few months. A client without input VAT deduction also pays the {ust} % VAT on every invoice."},"report":{"eingaben":"Inputs","ergebnis":"Result","stelle":"Position","angebot":"Engagement","arbeitszeit":"Working time","stundenProduktiv":"Productive hours a year","arbeitstage":"Working days a year","neutral":"Hourly rate at the same cost as the position","neutralTag":"Day rate at the same cost as the position","gleich":"Hourly rate for the same net"},"pair":{"text":"{stelle} ⇄ {angebot}","ok":"Room {unten} to {oben} an hour","no":"No room: the same net only from {satz}","drin":"{satz} an hour is within the room of {unten} to {oben}","drueber":"{satz} an hour costs more than the position (up to {oben})","drunter":"{satz} an hour nets less than the position (from {unten})"},"stunden":{"title":"Hours a year","anstellung":"Employment","auftrag":"Engagement","bezahlt":"{h} paid","verfuegbar":"{h} available","gearbeitet":"worked","verrechenbar":"billed","nichtVerrechenbar":"not billed","feiertage":"Holidays","urlaub":"Leave","krank":"Sick leave","auslastung":"Utilisation","wochen":"{n} wk","tage":"{n} d","ariaAnstellung":"{h} of {b} paid hours worked","ariaAuftrag":"{h} of {b} hours billed"},"list":{"jahr":"/ year","monat":"/ month","stunde":"/ hour","tag":"/ day","nettoMonat":"net / month","budgetDetail":"Total cost incl. payroll levies","bruttoDetail":"Gross, paid 14 times a year","bruttoDetailFrei":"Gross, paid 12 times a year","nettoJahr":"net / year"},"auftraggeber":{"standort":"Place of work","standortHint":"Sets the surcharge on the employer contribution, the Vienna employer levy and the chamber."}}
