🪙 Profit

Increases profitability ("business impact")
So assuming we define the cost associated with the current state of maintenance of a feature (e.g. burn rate $1000 a month allocated to current state of feature) then we can define changing profit relative to the existing state of the burn.
  • Small: unlikely to change profits (0-10%) - e.g. burn rate is now $900
  • Medium: moderate savings (10-50%) - e.g. burn rate is now $500
  • Large: big savings (50-100%) - e.g. burn rate is now $0
And from an external perspective: the profit percentage can still increase according to the scale above if revenue is increased from an improvement/new feature.
