Inputs

Delay
20 days
Overhead day
500 currency/day
Benefit day
800 currency/day
Penalty day

How to use this tool

  1. Enter your own assumptions using a consistent currency and period.
  2. Review the scenario outputs and compare alternative inputs.
  3. Check the stated model limits before using the result in an operating plan.

Try this example

{
  "delay": 20,
  "overhead_day": 500,
  "benefit_day": 800,
  "penalty_day": 100,
  "penalty_cap": 1500
}

Accuracy and scope

User-supplied contractual cost assumptions; does not determine enforceability, liability or whether delayed benefits are permanently lost.
