The document discusses calculating a service cost for a consulting project. It states that the original project cost was 83 lakhs and that a 20% profit margin should be added to that cost, not deducted. It then explains that the total service cost of 83 lakhs plus the 20% profit margin should be divided by the number of hours worked to determine an hourly rate for 5 consultants, in order to justify the pricing strategy for the final presentation.

TODAY EVENING I TOLD YOU GUYS TO DEDUCT THAT 20% PROFIT MARGIN WHICH IS WRONG..ASHLEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS TO BE ADDED
SO OUR PROJECT COST WAS 83 LAKHS+ 20% PROFIT MARGIN ON THAT=COSNULTING SERVICE COST
FOLLOW THIS ...WE WILL GET OUR SERVICE COST
2....USING THIS COST=(83 LAKHS+ 20% PM ON THAT)...now this amount you have to justify ,as we cannot say that we have taken 5% of project cost IN OUR FINAL PRESENTATION, so
PRICING STRATEGY HAS TO BE EXPLAINED,SO CALCULATE LIKE THIS: 22 DAYS IN A MONTH WE NEED TO WORK ( (DEDUCT SAT AND SUNDAYS)
DEDUCT SICK LEAVE OF 7 DAYS AND 6 HOLIDAYS=DAYS WILL COME
SO FINALLY WE GET 256 DAYS ,NOW MULTIPLY THIS 256*8 HRS=2048 HRS
NOW YOU DIVIDE THE SERVICE COST(83 LAKHS+20% PM)=SAY IT COMES 99LAKHS
DIVIDE THIS 99 LAKHS BY 2048=RS 4863.6(HOURLY RATE)...NOW GUYS WE HAVE 5 CONSULTANTS,SO DIVIDE THIS AMOUNT BY 5..WE GET RS 966 ON HOURLY BASIS....
SO OUR PRICING STRATEGY IS DECIDED...NOW WE CAN INCLUDE THIS AMOUNTN OUR CASH FLOW ON MONTHLY BASIS..HOPE U UNDERSTOOD
