Enter the total number of words to be translated and the cost per word ($/word) into the Translation Cost Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Translation Cost. 

Translation Cost Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Translation Cost. 

TRC = #W * CPW

  • Where TRC is the Translation Cost ($)
  • #W is the total number of words to be translated 
  • CPW is the cost per word ($/word) 

How to Calculate Translation Cost?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Translation Cost.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total number of words to be translated. The total number of words to be translated is given as 5,000.
  2. Next, determine the cost per word ($/word). The cost per word ($/word) is provided as .10.
  3. Finally, calculate the Translation Cost using the equation above: 

TRC = #W * CPW

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

TRC = 5000 * .10 = 500 ($)

Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total number of words to be translated = 75,000

cost per word ($/word) = .05

Entering these values and solving gives:

TRC = #W * CPW = 3,750.00 ($)
