Budget estimate

$1,200,000 – $2,100,000

Based on the required volume of roughly 259,000 copies per issue and typical commercial printing rates (approximately $5,000–$8,000 per 1,000 copies for a full‑color magazine with standard finishes), the annual contract is likely to fall between $1.2 million and $2.1 million. This range accounts for base‑run pricing, potential add‑on signatures, color upgrades, and labor for proofing and alterations, as well as the possibility of one‑year extensions that could increase total revenue.
