Source: https://www.meadowdesk.com/tools/billable-hours-calculator

Free billable hours calculator. Log the week’s tasks, mark what’s billable, and see billable hours and the amount to invoice add up as you type.

Log the week’s tasks, mark what’s billable, and watch your hours and the amount to invoice add up as you type.

## How to use it

1. Set your hourly rate.
2. Add each task with its hours in decimals, so 1.5 is an hour and a half.
3. Switch anything you can’t bill to non-billable, then read your totals.
4. Copy the totals onto your invoice before you close the tab.

## Billable hours calculator FAQ

**What counts as billable time?**
Anything you agreed to charge for: the work itself and, usually, client calls and revisions. Your own admin, sales and bookkeeping are non-billable.

**How do I convert minutes to decimal hours?**
Divide the minutes by 60. 15 minutes is 0.25, 30 is 0.5 and 45 is 0.75.

**Should I bill for emails and calls?**
If they’re about the client’s project and your agreement allows it, yes. Say so in your contract so nobody is surprised.

**Is my timesheet saved?**
No. It lives in your browser tab and nothing is sent anywhere, so copy your totals before you close it or refresh the page.

**How often should I invoice my hours?**
Weekly or monthly for ongoing work, at each milestone for projects. Whatever you choose, agree it up front and stick to it: regular, predictable invoices get paid faster than one large surprise.
