Budget Estimate (AI):

$500,000 – $1,500,000

The budget for this contract can be estimated based on the value of the contract, which is $1,000,000.00. However, this value may not represent the actual budget, as it may include costs for other services or materials. A more accurate estimate can be made by considering the scope of work and the requirements for printing and distribution services. Assuming an average cost of $0.50 per unit for printing and distribution, and an average annual circulation of 720,000 copies (10 issues x 72,000 copies per issue), the total annual cost for printing and distribution would be approximately $360,000.00. Over the 24-month contract term, the total budget would be approximately $720,000.00. However, this estimate does not take into account additional services, such as poly-bagging and mailing, which may increase the total budget. A reasonable estimate for the budget would be between $500,000.00 and $1,500,000.00.
