It's about $100 in materials which I already have and 4 hours of labor.
Just at T&M I feel like I'm way too low, which probably means I should
change how I'm billing it. :)
So how do you arrive at $1500? What's the math?

Sounds like at least a $1500 job to me...

I'm curious what some of you guys might charge for running 200' of new
cable through a conduit, adding a splice case at both ends of the
conduit, and splicing the old cable to the new section.
This is on private property and the existing cable was broken (bent
into a hairpin by outside trauma) just outside the conduit. There's
not enough sticking out of the pipe to put a splice there, so I have
to run a new piece through the conduit.
I guess the scope of work isn't that important though. I'm more
interested in how you bill it. I know some people use an hourly rate
for installing the cable and then a flat fee per splice. Is there a
justification for charging per splice as opposed to charging for T&M?
Is it to recoup the cost of the splicer perhaps?
