How this works and common questions

About this tool

Each line has a planned amount and an actual amount, in Canadian dollars. The tool adds them and shows the gap. A simple estimate, not advice. Nothing is stored.

How it works

Planned amounts are added. Actual amounts are added. The gap is actual minus planned. Under means money still inside the plan. Over means actual is higher.

Rules

Amounts are in Canadian dollars, to the cent. Blank lines are skipped. A simple estimate, not advice. This page does not track a bank account.

Questions

What if I am under the plan?

The gap shows how much the actual total sits under the planned total. It is not money in a bank.

Can I add more than one line?

Yes. Add a line for each part of the job. The totals include every line.

Does this include tax?

Only if you type tax into an amount. The page does not add a tax rate.

Do I need an account?

No. The tools work without one. You only need to sign in to save your work.

Is what I type saved?

No. Nothing is saved unless you sign in and choose Save. Otherwise it stays on the page.

Do you show ads or sell my information?

No. We show no ads and we do not sell your information.

Is this tax or legal advice?

No. Results are estimates for planning. Check rates and rules with the official source or a qualified professional.
