How to reasonably quote a 100+ screen system to determine budget viability

The developers will code each screen according to the following legend:

Search screen 2 to 3 hours design, 4 to 6 hours development
Simple screen 2 to 4 hours design, 4 to 8 hours development
Reports 3 to 4 hours design, 6 to 8 hours development
Standard screen 4 to 8 hours design, 8 to 16 hours development
Complex screen 8 to 16 hours design, 16 to 24 hours development

The developers need the screens prioritized by the client. No doubt there are a large number of essential screens and reports. However there are likely some screens and reports that are not mission critical and their absence would not hinder the operation of the system.

Specifically if the client needs to categorize the screens according to phase.

Phase 1 - essential, mission critical, impossible to operate without, no work around
Phase 2 - there are work arounds for their absence, major inconvenience without them but not impossible
Phase 3 - minor inconvenience, nice to have
