Billable hours are the amount of your work time that can be charged to your employers or clients.

To help you understand the calculation of the billable value, let's take Mirabelle as an example:

• Name: Mirabelle
• Billable rate: $20 per hour
• Billable time: 120 hours

The billable value calculation only takes three steps:

1. Determine your billable rate:

   The first step is to determine the billable rate. The billable rate or hourly rate is the salary you and your employer have agreed upon in exchange for your service for a certain duration, for example, per hour. For Mirabelle, her billable rate is $20 per hour.

2. Calculate your billable hours or billable time:

   Next, we need to calculate the billable time. The billable time is the amount of time you have worked. Mirabelle has worked for 120 hours. Typically, to calculate the billable hours, you need to write down your daily work hours and add all of them together at the end of the period.

3. Calculate the billable value:

   The last step is to calculate the billable value. You can calculate it using the billable value formula:

   billable value = billable rate × billable time.

   For our billable hours example, Mirabelle's billable value is 20 × 120 = $2,400.

Understanding billable hours can be critical, especially to part-time workers or freelancers who usually charge their clients by the amount of time they put into completing their projects. When you understand this concept, you will know how to increase your overall earnings by participating in part-time jobs or freelancing.

Even though we generally use billable hours in part-time and freelancing jobs, some service companies such as law firms and consulting firms also charge their client using billable hours.
