Programmers's job is never done. You write 90% of the software in 10% of the time, and the rest 10% of the software takes forever.
If you hire 15$ hour programmers you will get 15$ value of software. If you allocate budget for 67 hours or 1000$to fulfill the job you would get exactly what you paid for.

$15/hr x 40 x 50 = $30,000. That's 3x the national average. That's the equivalent of someone in the US making roughly $150,000 a year.
