Personal Budget: Weekly Fixed1. Add 4 weeks of pay
1. $36,000 / 52 weeks in a year2. About $700 Gross, $500 after taxes (Single
0 withholding)

Personal Budget
Ensuring Your Wage: Industry Standard
Labor Hours x hourly wage1. Glassdoor, Simply Hired,
Ehow.com2. Yearly Salary / 52 weeks in
a year / 40 hours a week
• Ceramics Artist $27,000 = $13 per hour• Photographer $30,000 = $14.50
Wage-Based Pricing
( cost x 2) + ( labor hours x hourly wage)
= Price Per Piece
Wage-Based Pricing: Long Term Cost Allocation
Wage-Based Pricing: Short Term Cost Allocation
Wage-Based Pricing: Wage per Piece
Wage-Based Pricing: Price Per Mug
Short Term Cost $0.19 + Long Term Cost $4.50
Total Cost per Mug $4.69
( cost x 2)+ ( labor hours x hourly wage)
= Price Per Piece
Total Cost per Mug $4.69 x 2
$9.38
Cost per Mug $9.38
+ Total Wage per Mug$10.38
Price Per Piece = $19.76

• Double Cost Expense Returns after payoff= attracting investors
Cost-Based Pricing
30% Cost + 30 % Markup + 30% Labor + 10% Retained Earnings
= Price Per Piece •30 % Markup = pay off Long Term supplies, then profits after Break Even point•10% Retained Earnings = future investment•More expensive supplies = higher wages
