Massage Practice Overhead Calculator

Min Hourly Rate Needed always adds a fixed four-thousand-dollar desired take-home baseline on top of whatever Monthly Overhead your eight cost inputs produce, then divides that combined figure by one hundred thirty-two working hours per month -- twenty-two days at six hours each (lines 17-19). Raising Rent / Space increases Monthly Overhead directly through the sum on line 6, so the hourly figure rises even though the take-home target itself never changes.

Overhead per Session divides your total Monthly Overhead -- the sum of all eight monthly cost fields -- by eighty-eight, a fixed session count baked into the engine as four sessions per day across twenty-two working days per month (lines 13-14). Your inputs never ask how many sessions you actually book; the per-session figure always assumes that full eighty-eight-session capacity.

Yes. Monthly Overhead is a plain addition of Rent / Space, Utilities, Liability Insurance, Massage Supplies, Linens & Laundry, Marketing, Software / Booking, and License / CEU Fees with no multipliers, caps, or category weighting (line 6). A fifty-dollar increase in Marketing moves Monthly Overhead by exactly the same amount as a fifty-dollar increase in Rent / Space, and Annual Overhead, Daily Overhead, and Overhead per Session all scale from that single summed total.

Daily Overhead divides Monthly Overhead by twenty-two, matching the same working-day assumption used elsewhere in the engine for session capacity and hourly-rate math (lines 10 and 18). The calculator models business overhead spread across working days only, not across every day of the calendar month, so weekends and non-booking days are excluded from that daily figure.
