Price to contract out your machine?

I have a friend who is interested in contracting out my machine for a 3rd party to cut out some parts. How do you guys go about charging people to use your machine. Do you do it on an hourly rate, and if so how much. I have a 100 watt Reci tube and they want to cut up some acrylic parts, if that makes a difference.

I just did some really simple stiffners out of HDPE slow feedrates 12mm/s . This was for a good customer of mine charged him 50cents a minute laser time. $30.00 hour.
I nested the parts so it was hands free , just push the button and walked away. IDK if that helps at all ?

Actually, that's exactly the kind of feedback I was wanting. Thank you!
