Translation Pricing |
|
Once the original text has been received and confirmed to be
of acceptable legibility and content, pricing is determined using the
following formula. |
|
|
|
|
|
Pricing = ((Rate * Pace value) * Volume) + Formatting |
|
|
|
where |
|
Volume = Number of words produced. |
|
|
|
|
Note: Pricing for other services will be
calculated on a case by case basis. |

Examples |
|
If you had 20-pages (4,000-words) worth of Japanese text
needed for translation without any formatting, rates and schedules would
be as follows: |
| Standard pace |
|
| Pricing |
(4,000 words x 30 yen) + 0 yen formatting = 120,000 yen |
| Schedule |
3 days lead time + ((4,000 words / 200) / 10 pages) = 5 days |
| Slow pace |
|
| Pricing |
(4,000 words x 22.5 yen) + 0 yen formatting = 90,000 yen |
| Schedule |
7 days lead time + ((4,000 words / 200) / 7 pages) = 10 days |
| Extra slow pace |
|
| Pricing |
(4,000 words x 15 yen) + 0 yen formatting = 60,000 yen |
| Schedule |
30 days lead time + ((4,000 words / 200) / 5 pages) = 34
days |
