Method & assumptions
Included hiring cost = external cash expense + internal hours × allocation rate. Cost per hire divides by completed hires in the same period.
Hypothetical worked example
$8,000 external expense + 100 hours × $40 = $12,000; four hires gives $3,000 each.
Scope and limitations
- User-entered planning assumptions, not verified market data or a professional determination.
- Include only costs for the specified cohort. Zero hires leaves cost per hire undefined, not zero.
