Examples

General calculation formula, use lines 1 - 3. If you use Master or Premium Qualification, add lines 4 or 5 to the base project cost from line 3.

Reward x # of Assignments = Total Reward Cost
(Reward x fee %) x # of Assignments = Base Fee
Total Reward Cost + Base Fee = Base Project Cost
Premium Qualification Fee x Assignments = Total Prem. Qual. Fee
(Reward x Master Fee 5%) x # of Assignments = Total Master Fee

Example One

Project with 1 HIT, 300 assignments, reward of $1.00, and the Premium Qualification "Gender - Female".

$1.00 x 300 = $300 | Total Reward Cost
($1.00 x 40%) x 300 = $120 | Base Fee
$300 + $120 = $420 | Base Project Cost
$0.50 x 300 = $150 | Total Premium Qualification Fee
$420 + $150 = $570 | Total Cost

Example Two

Project with 100 HITs, 5 assignments per HIT (100 HITs x 5 assignments/HIT = 500 total), reward of $0.25, and the Master Qualification.

$0.25 x 500 = $125 | Total Reward Cost
($0.25 x 20%) x 500 = $25 | Base Fee
$125 + $25 = $150 | Base Project Cost
($0.25 x 5%) x 500 = $6.25 | Total Master Fee
$150 + $6.25 = $156.25 | Total Cost
