Pricing Workflow ROI Calculator

Estimate conservative annual value from margin protection, faster supplier cost recovery, and labour savings. The break-even basis point result gives executives a simple way to test whether the subscription cost is plausible against affected pricing revenue.

Inputs

Pricing workflow assumptions

Operating inputs

Use current revenue, timing, update volume, and labour-cost inputs from your pricing workflow.

Used for context. The model is driven by revenue affected by pricing decisions.

Model assumptions

These are modeling assumptions, not guaranteed NewAxiom results. Keep them conservative and adjust them when better evidence exists.

Modeled estimate only. Lower break-even basis points mean less margin protection is needed to cover the estimated annual subscription cost.

Supporting value drivers

Annual modeled value before the realization factor

Margin protection value

$2,000

Affected pricing revenue multiplied by the margin protection assumption.

Cost recovery delay value

$2,740

Supplier-change revenue exposure reduced by faster implementation timing.

Labour savings

$2,100

Hours removed from recurring pricing updates multiplied by update volume and loaded labour cost.

Methodology

Margin protection value
Affected pricing revenue is multiplied by the margin protection improvement. This models value from avoiding missed margin, inconsistent pricing, or under-recovery across the revenue scope you enter.
Cost recovery delay value
Supplier-change revenue is divided into a daily exposure, multiplied by the number of implementation days reduced, then multiplied by the average supplier cost increase.
Labour savings
Hours removed from each pricing update are multiplied by annual update volume and loaded hourly labour cost.
Conservative annual value
Margin protection, cost recovery delay value, and labour savings are added together, then multiplied by the realization factor.
Net annual benefit and ROI
Annual subscription cost is subtracted from conservative annual value. ROI compares that net benefit with the annual NewAxiom subscription cost.
Break-even basis points
Annual NewAxiom cost is divided by affected pricing revenue, then converted into basis points. This shows the small margin protection threshold needed to cover the subscription cost.

Model guardrails

Double-counting warning

Keep each value driver distinct

If the margin-protection assumption already includes faster supplier-cost recovery, set the cost-recovery-delay value to zero or avoid counting the overlap.

Conservative-estimate disclaimer

Treat the output as a modeled estimate

This calculator provides modeled estimates only. Actual results depend on catalog complexity, pricing process, sales behavior, data quality, and implementation.
