SQL Server 2000 -> 2005 Upgrade Costs

    My division is looking at upgrading our SQL Servers from 2000 to 2005 within the next six months. The other day, my boss asked me if I could do some online research to try and find an "Upgrade Cost Estimate calculator" of some sort. From his business perspective, for any given number of factors such as # of database servers, database average size, # of objects, etc., could be punched into some kind of magical formula to output an estimated manhour cost. He figures that someone HAS to have done this sort of analysis already, and is hoping that I can find it.

    Has anyone out there heard of or seen such a thing, whether it be an online estimator, a PowerPoint presentation, or even a speech from a Microsoft rep? Thanks in advance!
