TIER ONE (FOR JOBS WITHOUT MAJOR PROBLEMS)

Editing can be one-pass or two-pass. See here for details.
Here's the formula for a normal one-pass Tier One edit.
1. Do a word count. 100,000 words
2. Set aside the first 3000 words or part thereof 100,000-3000 = 97,000
3. Divide the remainder by 3500 97000 divided by 3500 = 28
4. Multiply the result by 16 28 x 16 = 448
5. Add 26 to cover the first 3000 words 448 + 26 = $474
6. The answer will be the probable dollar amount for your one-pass Tier One edit.
7. Interest-free part-payments are available
Here's the formula for a normal one-pass Tier Two edit.
1. Do a word count. 50,000 words
2. Set aside the first 3000 words or part thereof 50,000-3000 = 47,000
3. Divide the remainder by 3500 47000 divided by 3500 = 13
4. Multiply the result by 25 13 x 25 = 325
5. Add 40 to cover the first 3000 words 325 + 40 = $365
6. The answer will be the probable dollar amount for your one-pass Tier Two edit.
7. Interest-free part-payments are available

EDIT ASSESSMENT COMBO
If you want an edit/assessment combo, work out the price for an edit and add 16 for your quote. The combo must be done in the same operation. If you ask for an assessment first and an edit of the same material a few weeks later, that is two separate jobs, although you will get an $11 discount.
