Just confirming your 10% figure. Across a dozen or so products I've been involved with, the actual labor/SMT assembly costs have been about 10% of the total BOM (bill of materials). Very roughly the cost per component-placement is about 1-cent (USD). My quoted labor rates are about $7/hour, though I see $15/hour at a lot of other factories (and warehouses).
