You don't charge anything. Experience can't be sold.

None of the above. Cash payment is a function of the employer's wealth, how
important the run is to the employer, and how difficult the employer expects
it to be. Karma awards are a function of how difficult the run actually is
(with a few bonuses based on how much the individual player enhances the
group's enjoyment of the game).
