Projektkostenrechner — Formel
## How to Estimate Project Costs
### Formula
**Total Cost = (Labor + Materials + Equipment + Overhead) x (1 + Contingency%/100)**
A contingency budget covers unexpected costs, change orders, and price fluctuations. Industry standard is 5-15% depending on project complexity and risk.

Lösungsbeispiel
A remodeling project with $12,000 labor, $8,000 materials, $2,000 equipment, $3,000 overhead, and 10% contingency.
- Subtotal = $12,000 + $8,000 + $2,000 + $3,000 = $25,000
- Contingency = $25,000 x 10% = $2,500
- Total project cost = $25,000 + $2,500 = $27,500
