Translation Charges?

Can anyone give me the typical rate for Translation from Chinese into English per character?

Also, how much do Taiwanese firms charge to proofread English per word?

I have been asked by a friend/colleague to give a quote for both?

I don’t want to overcharge and don’t want to be undercut.

Thanks in advance for your respective replies! :notworthy:
