Craft Materials & Labour Pricing Tool

Price a handmade batch with waste, own time and per-item selling costs.

Use your own entries in a reusable offline planner or calculator, then keep the details reviewable with the accompanying printables. Monetary entries and outputs use UK sterling (£).

WHAT YOU GET

- One offline HTML tool: craft-pricing.html.

- One three-page A4 PDF: a quick-start guide and two purpose-specific printable worksheets.

- Read-Me-First.txt with extraction, opening and backup instructions.

The three files are supplied together in one ZIP download.

SPECIFIC FEATURES

- Materials and labour per batch

- Per-item margin and fees

- Making-time and price review

Cost a handmade batch using materials, waste, making time and overhead. Spread those costs across the items and allow for your target surplus margin and selling fees when reviewing a per-item price.

EXAMPLE

£8 unit cost plus £1 fixed fee, 20% margin and 10% sales fee gives £12.857..., rounded up to £12.86.

The supplied example is illustrative. Replace sample figures, dates and records with your own; the examples are not recommended prices or promised outcomes.

USING AND SAVING YOUR FILE

Download and extract the ZIP, then open the HTML file locally in your desktop browser. There is no subscription needed to use the supplied files. Browser-local saving is optional and off by default. It can vary with browser and security settings, so use the manual JSON export/import controls for dated input backups. A results CSV export is separate from the editable JSON backup. Data entered in this tool is not uploaded to a bank or cloud service.

REQUIREMENTS

Use a desktop browser that can open local HTML files and download CSV/JSON files. Checked in desktop Chrome; other browsers and mobile layouts have not been verified. The PDF can be viewed or printed with a PDF reader. No spreadsheet licence is needed for this HTML product.

PRACTICAL LIMITS

VAT and tax are excluded. Fees are your own inputs, not live platform rules. The margin plus percentage fee must leave a positive denominator; check that batch quantity and units are valid.

Batch costs are allocated across the number of items entered. The quote allows for the fixed per-item fee and percentage fee while targeting a margin on revenue. Surplus includes a cost for your own making time.

There are no automatic notifications, messages, applications, transactions or live integrations. You enter and maintain the records and perform any real-world action yourself.

USE LICENCE

One purchaser may use and adapt the files for their own household or their own business's internal use, including internal team working copies. Do not resell, redistribute or publish the files or templates. Nothing in this licence removes your statutory rights.
