It's kind of a late reply, but better now than never. I work as a freelancer in NL.
Your calculations are correct about the net retention. In general, having the 30% ruling and a freelancer salary will give you a 61-63% net retention or a simpler calculation would be: say you negotiate 70 euro/hour, then your net monthly salary would be about 7000 euros (assuming you get/have the 30% ruling). You can get a quotation by asking any umbrella company here in NL.
I noticed that you found your contract in The Netherlands via MBA (Michael Bailey's Associates). Be aware that their contracts are very shady and when you'll want to leave or you get fired, they will not pay you for the notice period. Should you want to sue them, they'd suddenly become very difficult to reach out to.
