I work with startups on things like this kind of fin modelling, not a CPA, nor a tech, but i was a COO multiple times and part of two. VC backed companies that got acquired, for FWIW take with a pinch of salt.
basically, in a speadsheet you need to build a ‘mini-fin model’ for this part, simply break down the unit economics into the variables and place your assumptions (if you have historic even better. in the spreadsheet blue text for inputs, black for formulas.
as a non-tech – ive always found that if i build the logic in a spreadsheet with all the formulas, both the non-tech and the developers will get the point and it makes it a bit easier for the devs to build.
Simple tool (or spreadsheet) to calculate estimated hosting cost per user?
