Average Cost per Call

Money

The average cost incurred by the call center for handling a single call. This metric helps in understanding the operational efficiency of the call center. A high cost per call might indicate inefficiencies, higher overhead, or the need for better training, while a lower cost can suggest effective operations.

Formula

Total operational costs / Total number of handled calls

Example

If a call center's operational costs for a day are $1000 and they handle 200 calls, the Average Cost per Call is $5.
