pay for academic transcription

Question for those if you in the world of northeast US universities: What would you consider reasonable hourly pay for hiring someone to transcribe recorded audio interviews to text, in support of someone's research?

$25 an hour is what I'm about to pay someone for basic English transcription. And I'm prepared to pay $50 for Spanish/English transcription, but luckily don't think I have to :)
