Subject:[techwr-l] ESTIMATING: HOURLY RATE VS PAGE RATE From:Anna Langley <anna -dot- langley -at- ibertech -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L, a list for all technical communication issues" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Mon, 30 Aug 1999 13:24:26 -0500
One of our writers needs to know how to estimate a contract job by
page-per-hour and hourly rates. She has five manuals to "Americanize."
These manuals have been translated from Japanese and need rewriting. One of
the manuals is 800 pages, the rest are about 100-200 pages each. She just
needs to know what price to charge per page and what price to charge per
hour. Then she needs to know how she should estimate how long the job will
take, with page-per-hour and per-hour prices.
Thank you,
