The difference between rate for and of
Thanks in advance for your help and consideration.
Generally, the meaning of 'rate for' is same as that of 'fee for' or 'cost for'.
But I found that in some contexts, 'rate for' was used without refering fee or cost such as
'rate for liability'. I googled both 'rate for liability' and 'rate of liability' and both of them showed me
enumorable results.
So my question is what is the difference between 'rate of liability' and 'rate for liability'?

We need more context. This is not a matter of a combination like "rate of" and "rate for". It's probably more related to a combination like "of liability ... " and "for liability ... ". "liability" could even be adjectival in these combinations, so it's impossible to answer your question on the basis of so few words.
