Bonus Calculator

Run the numbers before you raise the bar!

Giving your team a raise is a powerful step—but it’s helpful to know exactly what that step looks like. This calculator lets you explore raise scenarios—by percentage or dollar amount—and see the real impact on your payroll before making it official. Add as many employees as you'd like, adjust the details, and export the results to a CSV for easy sharing or editing.

‍Note: Annual payroll is calculated using each employee’s hourly rate × number of hours × 52 weeks.

Childcare Director Bonus Calculator

Bonus Calculator

Use this tool to calculate the director's bonus based on the revenue growth for the period you wish to evaluate. Simply enter the revenue for the period (e.g., monthly, quarterly, or annual), and the calculator will compare it with the previous period's revenue.

The benchmark percentage accounts for inflation and tuition increases—ensuring that only revenue growth beyond these predictable factors is considered for a bonus.

Enter the minimum growth (e.g., 5%) required to trigger a bonus. This accounts for inflation and tuition increases, so you can see the actual growth of your center.
This rate determines what percentage of the revenue beyond the benchmark will be given as a bonus. A target rate of 8% is recommended.
Even if the calculated bonus is higher, it will be capped at this maximum amount.
