I don't think a table will provide any kind of reasoning in their mind. They don't know, nor care, who the AIGA are.
Professional rates, for graphics to architecture, range from $25 - $100. For a freelancer, somewhere in the middle is good, depending on your skills. Don't forget to be able to justify it with:
Health Insurance (that's a big one), tech. upgrades, software prices, training, subcontractors, etc., in case they wonder where the cash is going. Have a good list ready and they won't be able to challenge you.
