    First, ask yourself what is the going rate for the type of work you are doing. Shouldn't be too hard to get a rough idea of what is considered typical.

    Secondly, how good are you? Your portfolio and work experience provide you with credibility/ or lack thereof that will help determine your price.

    Third, once the above is figured out, will the client pay that? You might want to make adjustments based on how much you want the work.

    Those are the calculations I would use. I wouldn't get in to type of exposure or other overly technical questions because ultimately the point is to drive towards a desired price that I consider worthwhile, not complicate things by forcing a price that the client might not be happy with.
