How we calculate your savings

Calculations are based on real customer data, platform usage, and industry benchmarks for accounts payable operations. Keep in mind that results are estimates and may vary depending on your company’s workflow, invoice volume, and implementation scope.

Cost and time assumptions

Average AP clerk salary: $45,000/year, with a 1.25x burden rate for benefits and overhead. Manual invoice processing time: 30 minutes per invoice. Current cost per invoice (CPI): $9–$12, depending on workflow complexity. Automated cost per invoice with PF360 Capture: $2–$3. Time horizon: 24 months, with an 8% discount rate applied for ROI projections.

How we calculate your ROI

Current cost/invoice: Based on both time and staffing costs. Monthly benefit: Difference between current and automated CPI × invoices processed per month. Monthly net savings: Monthly benefit minus PF360 Capture subscription cost (based on company size). Payback period: Implementation cost divided by monthly net savings. ROI (24 months): (Total benefits – total costs) ÷ total costs.
