# How do I calculate the total cost incurred for the hours worked by a user?

**Prerequisite:** To calculate the total cost incurred for the hours worked by a user, you have to set the cost per hour for a user. Read our FAQ on [how to set the cost per hour for a user](/us/books/kb/time-tracking/fix-cost-for-user.html).

To calculate the total cost incurred for the hours worked by a user:

*   Go to _Time Tracking_ on the left sidebar and select **Projects** or **Timesheets**.
*   Click _Log Time_ in the top right corner of the page and select **Log Time** from the dropdown.
*   In the pop up that appears:
    *   Enter the **Project Name** and the corresponding **Task Name**.
    *   Enter the time spent by the user in the _Time Spent_ field.
    *   The total cost will be updated based on the time entered in the _Time Spent_ field. You can find the total cost in the _Total Cost_ field.
    *   Click **Save**.
