As I'm sure most of you know, profit rates of different mineable commodities at different buyers vary pretty significantly.
Because simply pointing out these prices without specifics wasn't going anywhere, we've taken the systematic approach and created an overview of suggested new prices calculated with a straightforward credit per distance formula.
Well, mostly Jammi did.

Notes:

There are two prices listed, a base price calculated solely on travel time (Flat Adjusted Price or FAP) and a price with a constant value added to account for mining time (Mine Adjusted Price).
This is because Flat Adjusted Price benefits longer routes disproportionately, as the indicated credit per second rate may be only 5% lower than the actual rate on a very long route, but 25% lower on a short route as mining makes up a greater proportion of the total time investment.

Both values have a more or less arbitrary base credit per second value used to calculate the price.
The one used for Mine Adjusted Price is obviously lower as the time values are higher.
These values of 900 and 800 respectively, as well as the mining constant of 3 minutes are quick draft numbers and obviously not final.

Finally, Mine Adjusted Price of course relies on mining rates being very similar which currently is not necessarily the case. We have assumed some degree of standardization will take place in this regard.

Please post if you have suggestions or found mistakes.
