Big but Good Question!

To calculate the right price the company can afford for a software solution suitable for its activity there many factors to consider:

1) doing it in home by hiring programmers: this may be costly but will produce it according to the company needs.

2) buying a ready made solution: this may be the best selection in application like accounting and point of sale.

3) contracting with an IT solutions maker to develop the applications needed by the company.
