How much should you negotiate on a job offer?

I got a text from the job I’ve been waiting to hear from! They said they made a decision and want to speak with me later today. I don’t want to get my hopes up but I think it could be a job offer! If it isn’t, I’ll be sad but know I had a chance to advance my career and it can happen again. Anyway, if they make an offer I want to be prepared to counteroffer. My target is $60,000. Their salary range for the position is $50–60k as listed. I meet all the requirements except i lack a couple areas (FMLA and Workers Comp).

What is a reasonable percentage to counteroffer if they offer me the job?
