Assuming 10,000 city blocks, 600 windows per block, five minutes per window, and a rate of $20 per hour, about $10 million
I would charge 20$per hour …
I’d charge $5 per window. I’ll be one happy multimillionaire window washer.
assuming a population of 1 million => 0.5 million homes (assuming an occupancy of 2) => 1.5 million windows (assuming 3 windows per house) => 15 million (charging 10 $ per window)
40 billion dollars because I don’t wanna be in the window washing business, I wanna work for you guys, and it would take 40 billion to do that instead of this.
Next answer:
The question is also very ambiguous, I can charge whatever I want, does this mean that I will get paid 40 billion if I charge it? If I was charging to wash every window in Seattle is it one time or ongoing, does it have to be spotless or just cleaner than it was before I started? Am I cleaning or am I allowed to contract it out? What is my time frame for completing the job. You can have 2 out of the following three: Speed, quality, and price.
It rains a lot in Seattle, you sure you want to clean the windows?
((Time + Materials).40)1.15= Fee
time = rack rate
materials = squegees & windex
.40 = discount rate
1.15 = 15% travel expenses
