Yes, the original Parkinson’s Law paper contains an equation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson's_Law > The growth was presented mathematically with the formula x = (2k^m + P)/n, in which k was the number of officials wanting subordinates, m was the hours they spent writing minutes to each other.

(check the original paper for details since this obviously doesn’t explain what n is)
