Age 5Explain it to a 5-year-oldStart with a picture
Imagine using SaaS Seat Expansion Revenue to answer this question: forecast annual recurring revenue from expanding paid seats within existing customer accounts? Enter Eligible customer accounts, Expected expansion adoption, Average additional seats per expanding account, and 2 other inputs; the calculator shows Expected seat expansion ARR. Try changing one number and watch what happens to Expected seat expansion ARR. The answer tells you Expected seat expansion ARR.
Age 15Explain it to a 15-year-oldConnect it to the formula
Use eligible accounts and observed adoption rather than assuming every customer can expand equally. The rule is Expansion ARR = eligible accounts × added seats × monthly seat price × 12. Its input values are Eligible customer accounts, Expected expansion adoption (%), Average additional seats per expanding account, Monthly price per seat, Expected expansion gross margin (%), and the main result is Expected seat expansion ARR. Try changing one number and watch what happens to Expected seat expansion ARR.
CollegeExplain it at college levelState the model precisely
This tool models one operating decision from explicitly supplied company assumptions. The implemented relation is Expansion ARR = eligible accounts × added seats × monthly seat price × 12, evaluated from Eligible customer accounts, Expected expansion adoption (%), Average additional seats per expanding account, Monthly price per seat, Expected expansion gross margin (%) to produce Expected seat expansion ARR. Use eligible accounts and observed adoption rather than assuming every customer can expand equally. The model omits unentered taxes, cash timing, legal constraints and market uncertainty. Compare the output with company records and a downside scenario before committing resources.
The decision this tool supports

Why the business model works
Use eligible accounts and observed adoption rather than assuming every customer can expand equally.
Inputs and operating assumptions
This model uses Eligible customer accounts, Expected expansion adoption, Average additional seats per expanding account, Monthly price per seat, Expected expansion gross margin. Keep currencies, accounting treatment and time periods consistent with one another.
The formula
Expansion ARR = eligible accounts × added seats × monthly seat price × 12
What the calculator produces
The primary output is Expected seat expansion ARR; it also exposes Expected expanding accounts, Expansion annual gross profit. Change one assumption at a time so the comparison remains explainable.
