Seconded. Tom
Look at many other door maker sites and copy their
methods, which by the square inch with setup charges.
Different species, different prices.
Here is a basic example:

I just bought a raised panel paint grade door for $28. I can't buy the
materials that cheaply.

What is the competition selling theirs for? Do you offer something better
or different than what they sell? If yes, charge more. If no, you may not
be able to get more and still get the orders.
Are you turning away customers because you are so busy? If yes, raise
prices.

I've been looking at two places online to eventually buy doors.
www.portadoor.com and www.tapeease.com. You could consult those sites for
ideas on pricing.

Thanks for all the contributors. It's been a help from all of you who
responded!
My prices have gone up a little now, and I have always been pricing by the
square inch, which works out easiest to figure for me. I have also gone to
a minimum price for small doors. I'm going to nose around some other door
builders in the Fort Worth/Dallas area and compare some more. I guess it is
still a "whatever the market will bear" type thing, especially if I do the
installation and add hardware.
