Assumptions & scope

  • Business-case estimate from entered time, cost and benefit assumptions. Capacity released is not automatically a cash saving.
  • Staff time released is a capacity benefit; it is a cash saving only if expenditure is actually avoided. Remove it from the hourly-cost assumption if not monetised. Other benefits must be evidenced and exclude amounts already captured in time/overheads. Year-end benefits are assumed; taxes, escalation, replacement costs and financing are excluded.

How the calculation works

Annual labour cost = monthly transactions × 12 × minutes / 60 × monetisable hourly cost.

Annual net benefit = current operating cost − proposed operating cost including software + other evidenced benefits.

Project profit = annual net benefit × years − implementation cost; ROI divides this by implementation plus all software spending.

NPV = −implementation + discounted year-end annual net benefits.

Business-case estimate from entered time, cost and benefit assumptions. Capacity released is not automatically a cash saving.

Worked example

  • 10,000 monthly transactions, 5 minutes reduced to 1 minute and ₹600/hour release ₹48 lakh of modelled annual labour capacity.
  • With ₹50,000 net overhead savings and ₹3 lakh software cost, annual net benefit is ₹45.50 lakh, if the released capacity is monetisable.

What this tool covers

Business-case estimate from entered time, cost and benefit assumptions. Capacity released is not automatically a cash saving.

Using the result

Keep underlying bank statements, travel records, contracts or invoices with the PDF, as applicable. Recalculate when the facts or assumptions change. A modelled result is not a filing, legal opinion or guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Use an avoided-cost hourly assumption only when capacity can be monetised; otherwise describe it as capacity released.
