Check whether a product or job is actually profitable: full cost build-up including the costs everyone forgets, margin at current price, and the defensible new price.
Check my pricing on: {{item}} (what it is, current price, and every cost I can list: materials, labour time, subcontractors — plus my overheads: {{overheads}}).
Build the true cost: direct costs, labour at loaded rates (wages + super + leave loading + downtime — not bare hourly), the overhead allocation (show a defensible method for my business shape), and the forgotten costs (rework rate, quoting time for jobs not won, payment terms financing, warranty). Then: real margin at current price (prepare me — it's usually worse than I think), the price that hits {{target_margin}}, and how to defend the increase to customers (value framing, grandfathering, timing). Flag which cost estimate is shakiest and most worth tightening.
