ISO 17025 accrediting

could you please me explain ISO17025 on the following main issue: I want to get accredited my company *** according to ISO17025 for analytical radiocarbon dating services.

17025 accreditation: cost benefit

What about higher income for 17025 accredited Cal's compared to non-accredited?  
I am trying to justify accreditation to an electrical test equipment rental company. They have not been needing accreditation for most customers, who are small electrical test companies. Occasionally, they have to pass when government customers need accredited cals. 
Do you happen to have a rough % of additional price that a lab can charge for an accredited calibration, compared to just a straight commercial cal with NIST traceability?
Just a rough estimate would be great.
