This week's survey 

(These survey questions are sent in by our readers. Please spend a minute to give your answer to this week's survey as one or possibly more of your industry peers thinks this question is important and wishes to see your point of view as well as others in the industry.)  
 
 
Last week's survey results on the question of......
What is your hourly rate? Do you make sure all your cost are covered in this rate? 
 
  • NZ$80 - does not cover materials, but everything else. 
  • currently we charge between 70 and 88 dollars/h inc GST with all the cost adding up from insurance, worker compensation, superannuation sometime its a really tight fit, specially on little jobs, 
  • Tradesman = $90 ph
    3-4 yr apprentice = $80 ph
    1-3 yr apprentice = $60 - $80 depending on the type of work & if working alone or assisting tradesman.
    Actual staff cost per hour is $54 per hour based on 8 hour day 220 days working a year. If you can bill that out at least better than 80% than your will have a profitable year. Keeping lost/down time/redo's to under 20% is harder than you think. Good staff with good work ethics is everything.
  • Are these this surveys designed to help people who don't have a clue on how to run a business?
  • $90+GST/hr, including basic consumables like fixings and chemicals.
  • The hourly rate should be an AIC (all inclusive rate) encompassing your machine costs, labor, electicity consumption, maintenance, share of the plant overhead - ink and substrates should be passed onto your client in the estimated price 
  • Depends but around $90.00 per hour
