Formula
Total Contract Value:
Total Contract Value = Monthly Price × Contract Length (months)
Annual Value:
Annual Value = Monthly Price × 12
Example 1: Annual Contract
Monthly Price: $1,000, Contract Length: 12 months
Annual Value: $1,000 × 12 = $12,000
Total Contract Value: $1,000 × 12 = $12,000
Example 2: Multi-Year Contract
Monthly Price: $2,500, Contract Length: 36 months
Annual Value: $2,500 × 12 = $30,000
Total Contract Value: $2,500 × 36 = $90,000
Contract Length: 36 months = 3 years

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between contract value and ARR?
Contract Value (CV) is total value over contract term, while ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) is annualized value. For a 3-year, $1,000/month contract: CV = $36,000, ARR = $12,000. CV shows total deal value, ARR shows annual recurring revenue for SaaS metrics.
How do I account for discounts?
Use the discounted monthly price in the calculation. For example, if list price is $1,000/month but you offer 20% discount, use $800/month. This gives you actual contract value after discounts. Always use net pricing after all discounts and promotions.
What if I have annual pricing instead of monthly?
Convert annual to monthly: divide annual price by 12. For example, if annual price is $12,000, monthly = $12,000 / 12 = $1,000/month. Then use monthly price × contract length in months. Or multiply annual price by number of years.
How do I calculate for multiple contracts?
Calculate each contract separately, then sum the total values. For example, Contract 1: $12,000, Contract 2: $24,000, Contract 3: $18,000, Total Portfolio Value = $54,000. This gives you total contract value across all contracts.
Should I include setup fees or one-time costs?
This calculator focuses on recurring contract value. For total deal value including one-time fees, add setup/implementation fees separately. For example, if contract value is $36,000 and setup fee is $5,000, total deal value = $41,000.
How do I calculate for tiered pricing?
Use the average monthly price across tiers, or calculate separately for each tier. For example, if you have 10 users at $100/month and 20 users at $80/month: Weighted average = (10×$100 + 20×$80) / 30 = $86.67/month. Use this for contract value calculation.
