The arithmetic

Every figure above, worked by hand.

At the calculator's typical inputs. Move a slider and the same steps apply.

Hours a year
12 people × 6 hours a week × 48 weeks = 3,456 hours
Cost of an hour
$250,000 a year ÷ (48 weeks × 55 hours) = $94.70
What the checking costs today
3,456 hours × $94.70 = $327,273 a year
At a 90% reduction
$294,545 a year back, 3,110 hours, about 5.4 hours a week for each person
