is there any formulas used for bidding new construction house.
I use estimated time + estimated materials + % profit.
We always used a per opening price. That included most of what John said, then of course extra for can lights and trims, etc. But for switches and receptacles that included finish. Two gang box of course being two openings, etc.
Anybody care to share opening prices? I hear guys talk about a $25 per opening price but I can't make any money at that priceWe always used a per opening price.

If the guys that you hear talking about $25 are local, then I would say that they have optimized their crew and equipment for churning out new construction and it would not be a good idea for you to try to compete with them for that line of work.Anybody care to share opening prices?
