Freight revenue

I am trying to calculate how much revenue and airline makes from passengers and freight. I assume that an airlines will top-up aircrafts with freight once the passengers are loaded. I am doing the calculations for long haul flight (A340-600, 5700NM).

For the revenue from passengers I am assuming 4-5% from the ticket price and 100kg for PAX + bags.

I have two questions:

1) What would a rough estimate be for the revenue per kg freight on long haul PAX flights be?

2) How much of the payload can be effectively used for PAX and freight? The A346 has a max payload of 68t, I assume a certain percent of this does not generate revenue (e.g. crew, food, ..)

Thanks for all and any help
