The loss of profits to the business is a good start point to calculate the cost of replacing a key person in the business. There are many other ways to do this, and other factors may need to be added, particularly for highly specialised industries where the costs will be higher.Close

For key people who directly influence money coming into the business (such as sales staff) use gross profit. For key people responsible for managing cash flow (such as a managing director) use net profit. Commonly used multiples are applied. The calculator uses a profit multiple of 2 for those whose contribution is to gross profit and 5 for contribution to net profit.
