attendees * avg_hourly_rate * (meeting_duration + prep_time_per_person) / 60Preguntas frecuentes
How is the average hourly rate determined?
Use the average salary or billing rate of attendees. Divide annual salary by 2080 hours or use a known hourly rate.
Why include preparation time?
Preparation time is often overlooked but represents real cost. Including it gives a more accurate total cost of the meeting.
Can I use this for meetings with different salaries?
Yes, use the average hourly rate across all attendees. For more precision, calculate each attendee's cost separately and sum.

Fórmulas
Las matemáticas detrás de esta calculadora, escritas para que puedas verificar el resultado.
Total Meeting Cost
This formula converts total minutes into hours and multiplies by the hourly rate for each attendee.
Example:
Input: 8 attendees, $50/hr, 60 min meeting, 15 min prep each
Calculation: 8 × 50 × (60 + 15) / 60 = 8 × 50 × 75 / 60
Result: $500
Casos de uso reales
Dónde aparece este cálculo en la vida cotidiana.
Budget Planning
Estimate the cost of recurring meetings to allocate budgets effectively.
Example: Weekly team meeting costing $500 each time adds up to $26,000 per year.
Meeting Optimization
Identify expensive meetings and decide whether to shorten, reduce attendees, or cancel.
Example: Cutting a 1-hour meeting to 30 minutes halves the cost.
Cost Justification
Justify the need for efficient meeting practices or tools that reduce meeting time.
Example: Show that a $200 tool that saves 10 minutes per meeting pays for itself quickly.
