What are most preparers charging per 1099R? Just a ballpark is fine.

I am setting up billing in Proseries and have not seen any itemized charges from anyone else on 1099R's.  I have a client with a stack of them.

I charge by the hour so this is a foreign concept to me, but if you are charging by the form, what do you charge per W-2?  There isn't a lot of difference between entering a W-2 and entering a 1099R time wise so I would assume the price should be about the same.

I charge a flat rate, I don't charge per form.  

How long does it take you to enter a 1099R?   30 seconds maybe?  Hard for me to justify a price per form for something that literally takes seconds to enter.
