Well it's 4,133,691 moji apparently. So if Ludo's getting paid the same amount Arunaru was (1.75c per moji) it will have costed them $70k just for the translation alone (if they didn't re-do Arunaru's work). And if we assume editors are paid 1/3 of that then that's another $20k.
I don't know if it's still the case but MG used to pay their programmers quite well so that's another big chunk of change.
There's also the fact that they got the licence for the game only a few months after it came out so they probably paid quite a bit for that too.

So with all that I'd assume it would be somewhere around $200-250k
