Example calculation
| Investment for a Personal Translator 2008 Net for 10 employees: | 1.294 € |
| Daily translation effort 15 min.: | 10 employees x 15 min. = 150 min./month |
| Monthly translation effort: | 150 min x 20 days = 50 h/month |
| Time saving according to the survey of the Fraunhofer institute: | 40 % |
| Monthly time saving: | 20 h |
| Assumed hourly wages: | 35,- € |
| Monthly cost saving: | 700,- € |
| Amortization: | Within 2 months |
A company acquires the basic version of Personal Translator 2008 Net for 10 members of staff. The investment costs are 1.294.00 EUR.
If the 10 members of staff (clerks, managers, secretaries, etc.) are involved with translation of some kind (for example, looking up a word, translating an English webpage into German, or writing an e-mail in German), for an average of 15 minutes each day, then this gives the following monthly savings potential: 10 members of staff * 15 mins * 20 days * 40% saving = 20 hours Based on an average hourly rate of EUR 35.00 for each member of staff, this corresponds to a monthly cost saving of 20 hours * EUR 35.00 = EUR 700.00 This means that the investment will have paid for itself in two months!
