Unfortunately, this is rather impossible to answer without more information. The amount charged for the services of an executor must be reasonable in relation to the complexity of the estate, the work performed, the training and experience of the executor, etc.

There is no rule as to how much an Executor should charge. It needs to be reasonable given the work being done and relative to the size of the estate.
