Cochran is on a distinguished road
At Ewing Irrigation, where we buy the majority of our lighting supplies, their advice on breaking down lighting jobs is like this:

Retail Cost of Transformer
$175 per Light (more if it's a specialty light)
--they say the $175 per light to cover the cost of the light, wire, misc supplies, and labor.

They give this as a ballpark figure for beginners in the low voltage business to give them a place to start.

Like every project we do, I still price out all lights, transformers, wire, misc supplies and labor and then propose/charge according to that number. That number is always pretty close to the basis that the guys at Ewing give though....
