How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Court Type = 2, Typical Time Slot = 2, Sessions per week = 2, Session length (minutes) = 45 = 6 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Annual pay-per-play cost
    Annual pay-per-play cost = round(costPerSession * annualSessions * 100) / 100
    1950 = $1,950
  3. Calculate Annual membership cost
    Annual membership cost = round((annualMembership + memberSessionCost * annualSessions) * 100) / 100
    1290 = $1,290
  4. Calculate Annual savings with membership
    Annual savings with membership = round((annualPayPerPlay - annualMemberTotal) * 100) / 100
    660 = $660
  5. Calculate Break-even
    Break-even = round((breakEvenSessionsYear / 52) * 10) / 10
    1.2 = 1.2
