Divide matched-period net sales by summed worker-hours to calculate revenue per labor-hour, without turning the ratio into profit or staffing advice.
Revenue per labor-hour
$40.00USD per labor-hour for matched-period net sales and summed worker-hours. Descriptive revenue ratio only; not profit or staffing advice.THE DENOMINATOR IS PEOPLE-HOURS
Revenue per labor-hour joins sales and combined working time. The quotient is descriptive: it cannot explain demand, establish profit or prescribe staffing.
THE FIELD NOTES
Use the result now, then read the practical notes for assumptions, examples, limitations, and the choices behind it.
USD per labor-hour; matched period and operating scope.
Choose one reporting period and operating scope. Divide net sales in USD by the summed hours of every included worker during that period. This descriptive revenue ratio does not subtract wages or product costs.
Two people working four hours each and one person working two hours contribute 10 worker-hours. At $1,200 in net sales, revenue per labor-hour is $120.00. A separate $12,000 / 300-hour period gives $40.00 per labor-hour.
Match the sales dates, location and channel with the included worker-hours. Document the treatment of discounts, returns, paid breaks and salaried work. Do not substitute headcount or elapsed opening hours for combined hours.
This calculation cannot establish profit, service quality, an employee's performance or an appropriate staffing level. Inputs allow up to $1,000,000,000,000 and 1,000,000,000 hours. Positive outputs below $0.01 are labeled Less than $0.01; ordinary values display two decimals.
Use the retail conversion rate calculator to compare purchases with store visitors. Use the average order value calculator to examine sales per order. These different denominators help describe the same period without treating labor productivity as a causal explanation.

Divide net sales by total worker-hours for the same reporting period and operating scope. The result is USD revenue per labor-hour, not wages or profit.
No. Add the hours contributed by every included worker. Two people working four hours each contribute eight worker-hours even though only four hours elapsed.
Zero sales with positive hours gives $0.00 per labor-hour. Zero hours is invalid and produces no result. A positive ratio below one cent is labeled Less than $0.01 rather than displayed as zero.
