I would say about 5-10 hours programming depending on the speed of the programmerand 25-50 per hour depending on the quality of the programmer. If you want any additional info hit me up on ICQ 4763784

Depends If you break down a script like phorum It will be a lot easier than coding a board by yourself in my opinion
