Hi, In the present scenario, most of the owners spending between 2000$ to 5000$ to har and architect.  Well, this is only based upon a project and other services. Sum of an architect charge 8% to 15% of the overall project cost but it depends upon the services, size and type of project. allocating the performance of applications is an entity to determine the contractor selling price for distinct goods and various services. It is according to the rules of FASB and IASB.
