Build a single-page widget that calculates how much money is being burned in real time during a meeting. The user sets up the meeting by entering the number of attendees and an average hourly salary (in dollars). When they hit **Start**, a live ticker counts up the total cost second by second, displayed in large, dramatic dollar-and-cents format (e.g. `$0.83`, `$1.47`, …). Above the ticker show two supporting stats that update continuously: - **Cost per minute** — fixed label showing the burn rate - **Elapsed time** — a simple MM:SS clock The user can **Pause** and **Resume** the ticker (the cost freezes while paused), and **Reset** clears everything back to the setup form. No data needs to be saved between sessions. The whole experience is a single screen: a compact form at the top, the giant cost display in the centre, and three control buttons (Start / Pause / Reset) below it. Style it to feel urgent — think red digits on a dark background, like a financial doomsday clock.
