It begins with the monthly retail price for one seat, multiplies that price by the number of seats, applies either a percentage or fixed per-seat discount, and extends the resulting monthly charge across the selected contract duration. The main result is total contract value, often shortened to TCV. The calculator also shows monthly contract value and annual contract value, or ACV, so a long-term agreement can be compared with other deals on a consistent annual basis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe model is a pricing and revenue-planning tool, not an accounting recognition schedule. Invoice timing, implementation fees, usage charges, renewals, cancellation rights, taxes, foreign exchange, and variable consideration can change the economics or accounting treatment of a real agreement. Revenue recognition may need to follow standards such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ifrs.org\/issued-standards\/list-of-standards\/ifrs-15-revenue-from-contracts-with-customers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eIFRS 15\u003c\/a\u003e or the corresponding U.S. guidance discussed by the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fasb.org\/page\/PageContent?bcpath=tfft\u0026amp;pageId=%2Fstandards%2Fimplementing%2Frevrec%2Ffasb-iasb-resource-group%2Frevenue-recognition-bridge-page.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eFinancial Accounting Standards Board\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"scv-education-block\"\u003e\n      \u003ch2\u003eHow should each input be used?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eRetail price per seat, per month\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eEnter the standard recurring price for one user before discounts. This field is required for a meaningful result and should be entered in U.S. dollars. A higher retail price raises discounted price, monthly value, ACV, TCV, and the dollar value of any percentage discount. A common mistake is entering an annual seat price while leaving the model on a monthly basis; divide an annual list price by 12 before entering it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eSeats\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eEnter the number of paid licenses covered by the agreement. Whole numbers are typical, although the calculator accepts decimals for prorated or blended seat assumptions. More seats increase every contract-level result in direct proportion, while the discounted price per seat remains unchanged. Do not include free internal, sandbox, or trial accounts unless they are part of the billed quantity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eDiscount and discount amount\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eUse either field. The percentage field describes the reduction from retail price, while the amount field expresses the same reduction in dollars per seat per month. Editing one recalculates the other. A higher discount lowers contracted revenue and increases the discount-conceded amount. Discounts above 100% or above the retail price are capped because a standard subscription price cannot become negative in this model. For pricing strategy context, the U.S. Small Business Administration provides broader guidance on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sba.gov\/business-guide\/manage-your-business\/marketing-sales\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003emarketing and sales planning\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eContract duration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eEnter the paid term and choose months or years. Changing the unit converts the current number instead of merely relabeling it. A longer duration increases TCV and total discount but does not change monthly value or ACV. Fractional periods are prorated in the final projection row. The calculator limits the schedule to 100 years, which is far beyond normal software contracting practice but protects the browser from impractically large tables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"scv-education-block\"\u003e\n      \u003ch2\u003eHow should the results be interpreted?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eDiscounted price and monthly cost\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eDiscounted price is the net monthly price for one seat after the selected discount. Monthly cost is that net seat price multiplied by seats. From a vendor perspective, monthly cost is recurring contracted revenue before considering taxes, payment failures, credits, or usage adjustments. From a buyer perspective, it is the recurring subscription expense under the simplified assumptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eAnnual cost \/ ACV\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eAnnual cost is monthly cost multiplied by 12. It is useful for comparing contracts with different terms because it expresses the deal at a one-year run rate. A short contract can have an ACV larger than its TCV because ACV annualizes the monthly price, while TCV only includes the actual term. A zero ACV means at least one core driver is zero: price, seats, or net price after discount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eTotal contract value and discount metrics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eTCV is the net value across the full selected duration. List-price value is what the same seats and term would be worth with no discount. Total discount is the difference between list-price value and TCV. Effective discount shows that difference as a percentage of list-price value. A negative result is never shown because the model caps invalid negative inputs at zero.

The segment values and percentages always come from the same calculation model used by the result cards and Excel workbook.

The distance between the two lines represents the cumulative discount. When there is no discount, the lines are identical and the chart presents one contracted-value series to avoid a misleading duplicate line. The projection table can display every monthly period or aggregate the same schedule into annual rows.
