Best to assume this, I agree.
I asked client, but got no answer re this particular point.
I'm sure the client knows pretty well what the prices are, as it is the SOCIETE referred to!
Thanks a lot to all.

agree  Catharine Cellier-Smart: at the going rate (tarif en vigueur)
3 mins
  -> Many thanks Catharine. I usually translate "tarif en vigueur" as "rate in force", but your suggestion is equally fine.
neutral  Rob Grayson: I have no idea what "price negotiated by the rate" means. IMO, the only way to be sure of a correct translation here is to ask the client for clarification.//Recent and expired. My comment is purely linguistic in nature.
4 mins
neutral  Desdemone (X): Just word for word translation, so the meaning is unclear
1 hr
  -> Of course, it is all subjective and a matter of opinion. Even though it is a word for word translation, as you correctly suggest, it makes sense to me.

agree  writeaway: this makes sense /fwiw, I also agree with Rob but at least this is feasible
6 mins
agree  Rob Grayson: I agree that this makes sense, but would still seek clarification from the client as the FR text, IMO, does not really make sense.
26 mins
agree  Martin Cassell: This seems the best pragmatic (rather than blind literal) interpretation, assuming there is no error/omission in the source text: I would echo Rob's observation.
31 mins
agree  Enza Longo
39 mins
agree  Desdemone (X): Much better (agree with Rob and Martin re checking)
