This applet can be used to calculate a variety of interesting things
from an independent consultant's point of view. The most important
calculation yields an hourly rate to charge clients. If you have any
suggestions on what else you'd like to see calculated, please send me email.
Credit for the calculations must go to Stephen Fishman, author of
Wage slave no more: The Independent Contractor's Legal Guide,
available from Nolo Press, 1997. I have found this book highly useful.
