The upfront fee for software aquisition. This fee (usually annual) provides rights to use software within vendor-established terms. Caculate license cost by multiplying the estimated number of users by a per-user fee. Depending on the vendor, there may be additional costs assessed on a SKU, transaction, or active client basis.
Software customization and implementation incurs costs related to modifying and customizing the design, front- and backend. Usually calculated as the cost of development services per period required to launch a project.
Maintenance costs relate to software updates, upgrades, customizations, infrastructure hosting, and support. This is usually excluded from the license fee.
The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) includes the purchase price plus the costs of operation. Calculated as: license cost + implementation cost + maintenance cost.
Gross Merchandising Volume (GMV) is the total value of goods sold in a time period. It is calculated before deducting fees and expenses and excludes discounts or returns.
