I agree. Unless you are 100% sure what the job involves, as in done it before with the same company, there is no way you can make that sort of assesment.

If they are asking about it, then just flat out say what you want. Don't dance around the subject. They understand that you will be paid for your work and if you are not paid what you expect they will not be able to retain your services without some sort of negotiation. That is why they ask for it.
