Calculate ARR, revenue multiple, and rough payback period from asking price and monthly recurring revenue.
Quick Answer
MRR multiple calculator
An MRR multiple shows how many years of current recurring revenue a buyer is paying for the asset. It is a starting point, not a full valuation, because it ignores churn, margin, growth, support load, and transfer risk.
ARR
$42,000
Revenue multiple
1.4x
Asking price divided by ARR.
Monthly revenue payback
17.1 months
Annual revenue payback
1.4 years
When the multiple is misleading
A low multiple can still be risky if churn is high or the product cannot transfer. A high multiple can be justified only when retention, margin, and strategic value are strong.
