What do you feel would be a minimally acceptable rate of pay? (ex. $x. xx or $xx, xxx):

Correct question: I do not know if this question is complete or not but if i understand you well enough, I'd say that the minimally acceptable rate of pay will be in accordance to what is obtainable in yur state or area. $X.XX represents pay per hour while $XX.XXX represents pay per year.

I would say Negotiable to be on the safe side if you can't come up with a certain amount by yourself.

Explanation:

When you have to fill on an application and it gets to the rate of pay, you either be on the safer side and write Negotiable if you do not want to sell yourself short or be too pricey. But it is almost certain that the rate of pay applicable in your state or area is what you will be getting per hour.

I hope this helps.
