  • Provider fees, taxes and timing differences are excluded unless they are explicit inputs.

Sida loo fasiro natiijada

  • Treat the main number as a planning estimate, not a quote, approval or guarantee.
  • Compare at least a baseline, lower and higher assumption before deciding.
  • Use the result together with the related salary calculators for a broader view.
