I charge $75/hour (and am about to raise that), but I do almost only new
music from manuscript. It involves editorial decisions and often the
creation of new font elements (had to create 'real' Roman numerals
recently, with the connected serifs), finding technical errors and ordinary
mistakes, and solving presentation problems the composer didn't always take
into account. I figured that since I get $100/hour to write technical
articles on RFID, I should get the same for some *real* intellectual
effort. :)  And since I can produce the material fairly quickly, that
$75/hour is a bargain. $40/hour is 1990s wages.
