Okay, let’s tackle this. So Ron Shelby has experience as a tax manager, which is a mid-level position. His education is a high school diploma, which is not as prestigious as a college degree. Location is Houston, Texas, which is a relatively affordable city. Tax professionals with his level of experience, especially in a mid-level position, typically charge lower rates. Maybe around $50–$100 per hour? But considering his experience in tax management, maybe higher. Some tax managers can charge $125–$200 per hour. Let’s check averages. Tax managers with his background might average $75–$125. So I’ll estimate around $75.
