Intuit Reports on Accounting's Hourly Rates

Software developer Intuit - maker of QuickBooks - says accountants are charging more. According to its Intuit’s 2007 ProConnection rates survey...

...average rate increases ranged from $1 to $10 per hour. Non-software business consulting and software installation services garnered the highest average hourly rates of $95 and $86 respectively, showing increases of 12 percent and 7 percent.

For the first time ever, the survey showed how Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisors' rates compare to those of their peers. According to the survey, Certified ProAdvisors’ average rate for bookkeeping is $60 per hour versus $48 for bookkeepers who are not CPAs or ProAdvisors. The highest hourly rate for bookkeeping is held by CPAs at $71 per hour.

Self-serving, but interesting.
