That assumes $800 a day. If the OP is a student, whoever is hiring him is probably expecting to pay closer to $200 a day. But they should also probably assume it's going to take a student 4x longer to finish the project (if ever), so it probably comes out to about the same price either way.

Yes I'm a student so $200/day sounds great. Though, I'm not even sure that a company could be interested about my project. I was not asking its value in order to sell it, but just to start conceiving how much does a a project cost for a company. Thanks a lot for your reply.
