user2167: I am trying to evaluate how much one could earn as pool owner/solo miner if bitcoin really appreciates in price. To get a number i try to get a figure how much one mined block generates in for example a month, week, year.

How much fees does one mined block generates actually in a given timeframe? 
What percentage of that is from the block reward, and what percentage is from fees?


user3187: 1) Fees are very block-dependent but recently have normally been in the 0.25 - 0.5BTC range
2) A mined block currently gives 25BTC + fees.  From the above, fees are coming in around 1-2% of the total block reward

user3400: Let's look at an example. BTC Guild (www.btcguild.com) has about 33k GH/s.

That's about one third of the whole Bitcoin network combined

So let's imagine on average they mine one third of all the blocks.
That's 6*24 / 3 = 48 blocks in a day,
336 blocks in a week, and 1440 blocks in a month.
Now assume each block has a transaction fee of 0.5 BTC on average.
Now counting only transaction fee's:
That's 24 BTC in a day, 168 BTC in a week and 720 BTC in a month.
