I didn't realize that was what you were looking for; that's about the numbers I got 2 years ago for a 12,000 passing 100% deployment over a 3 sq mi city. There was a lot of good information in those threads if you're contemplating doing this from scratch;
This was part of a year long process to evaluate the future of wholesale access to last mile in Canada (independent ISPs using incumbent last mile), and in particular whether FTTP should be included in the regulation. Incumbents made arguments that the drop to the home represents 1/3 of the total FTTP investment, and I had to break that down to show that if ISPs pay for the CPE, it represents a significant portion of investment. (Incumbents argue that ISPs ride on their coat-tails and never share risk/investment, as well as the standard "we'll stop investing if you force wholesale" which is also used by AT&T/Verizon in USA. This hearing had enough spin to make anyone's head dizzy :-(
