MCV - Monthly Contract Value

Monthly Contract Value (MCV) is the average monthly revenue generated per customer contract. MCV helps businesses understand the monthly value of customer contracts and is useful for tracking revenue growth and comparing performance across different time periods.

How to Calculate MCV

MCV is calculated by dividing the total contract value by the number of months in the contract.
Formula
\[\text{MCV} = \frac{\text{Total Contract Value}}{\text{Number of Months in Contract}}\]
Examples
1. Basic Example: A customer signs a 12-month contract worth $12,000. The MCV is:
\begin{align}MCV &= \frac{12,000}{12} \cr&= 1,000 \text{ USD}\end{align}
2. Variable Contract Example: A company signs 6-month contracts, each worth $6,000. The MCV for each contract is:
\begin{align}MCV &= \frac{6,000}{6} \cr&= 1,000 \text{ USD}\end{align}

Key Considerations

  • Consistent Time Frames: Use consistent time frames when comparing MCV across different contracts to ensure accuracy.
  • Impact of Contract Modifications: Adjust MCV calculations if contracts are modified mid-term.
