What Is a Non-Compete Geographic Radius Worth in Cash?
Price a non-compete for negotiation
Restricted months × monthly pay, scaled by how far the radius reaches, becomes a negotiation floor. Use it to talk dollars instead of vague “we’ll be reasonable” language—not legal advice.
Inputs
How it's calculated
How it's calculated: Radius factor = clamp(0.7 + (50 miles ÷ 100) × 0.15, 0.7–1.6) = 0.77. Base floor = $10,000 × 12 months × 0.77 = $93,000. With scarcity boost 10%, negotiation floor = $102,300. Not legal advice.
Formula summary: floor = monthly_pay × restricted_months × radius_severity ; radius_severity = 0.7 + (miles/100)×0.15 (clamped 0.7–1.6)
