node.field_image.alt

To know how much it really costs to hire a software developer in india, vietnam, china, singapore read more details in this post. let's consider the actual costs of hiring developers.

Most of the budget in software development consists of developer wages. However, if you work using the IT outsourcing model, this factor becomes less critical in forming the development rates.

Software developer salary in the United States differs significantly from those, for example, in Asia. Consequently, hiring a remote team, a customer can reduce costs several times without losing quality.

HOW TO CALCULATE HOURLY RATE

To do this, you need to determine the number of hours worked per day (8 for a full-time employee) and multiply them by the total number of working days per year (250 in 2021 in the United States).

Then, divide the annual salary by that number.

For example, based on Indeed’s annual salary data, the average developer hourly rate in the US is: $110,390 / (8 * 250) = $55 / hour.

THE PRICE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIRING AND CONTRACTING

Determining whether a person is an independent contractor or an employee is important because it determines whether payroll taxes are withheld. You must withhold payroll taxes from employee salaries, but you do not withhold taxes from payments to independent contractors (except VAT for contractors located in the same jurisdiction).

VAT varies from country to country, but on average is about 20%.

Let’s consider two options:

In the case of working with independent contractors, it’s simple – you pay them the agreed hourly rate or project amount.

In the case of hiring a full-time employee, besides the hourly rate you also pay additional costs:

  • Bonuses;
  • Taxes;
  • Benefits;
  • Training costs;
  • Infrastructure costs.
  • Each country has its own legislation, but such costs, according to MIT, can reach on average from 25 to 40% in addition to the hourly rate.

Based on this, the developer’s annual salary turns from $110,390 to $110,390 + $44,156 (35% of 110 000) = $154,546 or $77 per hour.

*You can determine the amount of additional costs by examining the legislation of your country.

PROMINENT OUTSOURCING DESTINATIONS IN ASIA

  • India

This Asian country rides on its high population to provide inexpensive software development services of $25 and $50 per hour. This low cost however, comes at an expense of lower levels of skilled manpower.

  • China

China offers moderate rates (quite similar to Eastern Europe) and a vast talent pool of qualified IT professionals. Despite the quite affordable offshoring rates of $35–$60 per hour, China’s weak IP protection, however, poses a barrier for making the most of offshoring opportunities in this country. The Chinese government supports the IT industry by providing economic incentives and investing in technology parks where software experts are nurtured. The cost to hire app developers in the Philippines ranges from 8 to 40 USD/hour. Average rate – 20 USD/hour.
