Assumptions and limits

The result is derived only from the 4 inputs listed above. Anything not among them is not part of the calculation.
In particular, this calculator does not take inflation, tax, fees or charges or compounding frequency into account.
Figures are rounded for display to 1 decimal place, so totals built from several rounded parts can differ slightly from the unrounded arithmetic.

How these calculators are built and tested is described on the Methodology page. If a figure looks wrong, please report it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why budget hours rather than days?

Because a syllabus can be sized in hours per topic. Comparing that total against available hours reveals a shortfall early enough to act.

Should I plan for every available day?

No. Leave 15-20% slack for illness, overruns and rest, or the first disruption puts the plan permanently behind.
