Below are given some financial metrics, i.e. calculable parameters pertaining to financial and economic performance of a project. You can use these as reference when using project billing. They appear on the project details screen in the Financials section.
| Metric | Formula | Comments |
| Project profit | Project Profit = Total Project Billing* – Total Project Internal Cost** | Total of project-related bills minus total expenses and costs incurred during the project |
| Project Profitability, % | Project Profitability = (Total Project Billing – Total Project Internal Cost) / Total Project Billing x 100%. | Percentage of total project billing value minus total project expenses and costs in total project billing value |
| Project Cost Variance | Project Cost Variance = (Total Project Budget*** + Total Planned Expenses) – Total Project Internal Cost | Difference between budgeted and actual costs incurred by the project |
| Estimated Budget Profitability | Estimated Budget Profitability = ((Total Project Budget + Total Planned Expenses) - Estimated Cost) / (Total Project Budget + Total Planned Expenses) x 100% | Estimated profit portion of the project budget in percent. |
| Actual Budget Profitability | Actual Budget Profitability = [(Project Budget + ∑Activity Budget + Actual Billable Expenses) - (∑Time Log x Resource Internal Rate x Breakeven Rate + Total Actual Expenses)] / (Project Budget + ∑Activity Budget + Actual Billable Expenses) x 100% | Actual profit portion of the project budget plus activity budgets in percent. |
| Project Planned Expenses | — | Expenses planned for a specific project and Planned expenses aggregated from its activities |
| Estimated Cost | Estimated Cost = Project Estimated Cost± + ∑Activity Estimated Cost√ + Total Planned Expenses | The total of project estimated cost, that of all project activities, and planned expenses |
| Estimated Project Revenue | Estimated Project Revenue = (Project Estimated Hours x Project Rate OR Fixed Cost) + Planned Billable Expenses | The amount expected to be billed to the client |
| Percentage of Project Billed, % | Percentage of Project Billed = Total Project Billing / Estimated Project Revenue x 100% | Amount billed as percentage of project expected revenue |
| Project Time Usage, % | Project Time Usage = Project Actual Hours / Project Estimated Hours x 100% | Percentage of actual hours spent in estimated hours |
| Work in Progress (WIP), % | Work in Progress = (1 – (Total Project Billing / Total Billed Amount) x 100% | Amount of work done but not yet billed |
| Total Project Payments | ∑project payments | Summary of all payments made by a customer |
| Project Upfront Billing Utilization, % | Project Upfront Billing Utilization = (Total Billed / Estimated Project Revenue) x 100% – (Actual Hours / Estimated Hours) x 100% | The total of work hours you have been paid for but have not yet spent |
| * (∑Billable Time Logs x Billing Rate OR Project Fixed Cost) + Actual Billable Expenses ** ∑Time Log x Resource Internal Rate + Total Actual Expenses *** ∑Activity Budget + Project Budget + Total Planned Expenses ± Project Estimated Hours x Project Members' Average Internal Hourly Rate [(∑ Project Member's Internal Rate) / Project Member Count] x Breakeven Rate √ ∑(∑Personal Hours Left x Assignee's Internal Rate + ∑ Time Log Internal Cost) x Breakeven Rate. |
