13. Calculation method for page charges
Page charge = (Number of
characters in the text including spaces + Number of characters equivalent to
the figures) * 200 yuan per thousand characters + 600 yuan
Example: The text part (including spaces) is 22,801 characters, and the figures
total 1,199 characters, making a total of 24,000 characters. According to the
page charge formula, the total is 5,400 yuan.
