How This Rate is Calculated

Okay, let’s tackle this. So Blair has 14 years of experience in auditing and financial accounting, which is a solid foundation for a rate. He’s also worked with top-tier companies like KPMG and Danone, which adds prestige. However, his role as Business Development Manager might not command the same rate as a traditional audit or accounting role. Considering his location in Queenstown, New Zealand, which is a smaller market, I’ll adjust the rate downward. IFRS expertise is also valuable, but not as highly sought after as it was in the past. Let’s check averages. Chartered Accountants with similar experience can average $120-$180 per hour. Considering Blair’s role and location, I’ll estimate around $125 per hour.
