First welcome to CC! Second take off your capital letters, it considered shouting online
Now to your questions,
1 yes charge for a rush order.

2 yes you can charge a d/s fee

3 your price per cake is different depending on where you live. I charge 3.50 per slice for b/c frosting so check around to see what the going rate is in your area.

4 What kind of plates might you be charging for? if you want them back yes charge a small rental deposit fee then when you get your plates back you return the deposit. If they're disposable then no just add it to your cake prices.

5 Charge per slice for the larger stacked cake just like the 8" cakes.

6 Collect the entire fee upfront since it's last minute.

Be aware to what you are signing up for too. I just did a wedding like that and it was way more work than I was prepared for. In all I think I worked well over 20 hours on those "simple" cakes for decorating alone. I totally undercharged my people however I decided that going forward if I was going to do it again I would charge at least $40 per cake and then do the two tiered based on servings. If you price the small cakes based on servings you'll get screwed because the 8" cakes are probably more cake than they need anyway.
