If in a union, same as another CWI with the same years. If non-union, it will depend on your ability to bargain and market yourself. \n Best envelope would be 27.00 to 32.00 an hour plus package as an employee and 35.00 to 40.00 as an independent.

In my old job in the basic role (no sales *but take note there is sales*) you started at £13,000 bonus was 4 times yearly if you sol you could get £1500 each time so annually £19,000. However if you dont sell bonus will be about £200. \nThis is based in Scotland. \nMost banks start in the £11k-£12k range increasing yearly. \nA different company like a power company or mobile for example start around £14k. \nWages will be higher if you are in a sales role, collections, or supervisor role.\nHope this helps a little. \nPs most people last 6 months max unless you are brain dead I would avoid at all costs.

Most of the bonus is distribute by the president of the fund, so there is no formula. Depending on the size of the fund and your performance the bonus will go. I have traders friends that made around 200k in yearly bonus. I heard stories about 1 - 3 million given to head traders, but i dont know anyone personally. Remember that most hedge funds, only have 2-5 employees and manage an average of 20 million dollars.

Go to an accounting service and ask. You're going to have to get one anyway. He or she will set you up with a package.\nMine was $800 up-front to incorporate with her sevices and $300 a month after that. It was well worth it and saved my butt many times.

temps don't typically get raises, but if you would, it should be based on your performance or company % rates. The company I work for is usually 15% of your pay.

As an employer, I would like to say that it is VERY appropriate for an employee to ask if you'll be getting a bonus.  Shame on the company for not making sure the employees know where they stand, and where the company stands as far as profitability for the year (what most bonus's are based on).\n\nAn employee should never be hesitant to discuss their income with their boss.  Bosses are human, too, and it is natural to want to know what your income is to be.  Don't be afraid to discuss future raises, or an increase in compensation for increased responsibilities.  Employers aren't dumb enough to think you work there "just for fun."  On the other hand, if you haven't been keeping up your part of the bargain, don't be surprised if the answer is "sorry, no pay raises in the immediate future."

I would suggest, start out alone and work until you cannot do it by yourself then hire out. You want to keep you overhead as low as possible starting out. You can easily earn a decent living by keeping overhead down. find creative ways to advertise and do all the advertising you can do within your budget. Research accounting rates in your area- that will give you an idea of where you need to be in order to make a decent living at accounting. Take advantage of tax season and do as many returns as possible.  Give your clientele a reason to return to you.

Don't go an hourly rate..set a flate rate or a weekly rate. Every other perfesion gets paid for holidays and stuff so why shouldn't you? If you charge hourly then you don't get paid for holidays or when they take their vacations. I would round it up to $100 a week.

you have a valid claim, if your asked to go above and beyond your hired duties you should be rewarded (especially if your in a lower position, making less)\nMy suggestion to you is to list all your hired duties as well as another list with your added duties as this person has been out.\nSit with your manager/supervisor and state your case. As an owner of  a business myself i have over looked the work of employees who took on more than they were hired for. When my now assistant showed me what we hired her for and what she has been doing I was then able ot see her value and I gave her a raise. She continued to go above and beyond her call of duty and she is now my assistant making a good salary and has the potential to own shares of my company as in another 3 months i will offer her that opportunity. \nYou may not be compensated right away but make your boss aware of your extra duties and continue to do them as it only betters you as a person

There are three things to compute - gross salary, adjustment for specific countries, and then the sign-on bonus.\n\nAn example is a voucher examiner job here\nhttp://cc.msnscache.com/cache.aspx?q=3407208514813&lang=en-US\nthat pays about $40,000 in US Embassy in London

call a similar firm - asking what they charge for activities similar to those that you will provide.\n\nfactor in skill level, reputation, overhead, etc.\n\nif you're just starting out you may want to charge below average in order to attract clients.\n\npeople will not feel they are getting less because you charge less.
