Hi Dean,
Check out the Canadian League of Composers website. They list minimum
fees for composing for different ensembles per minute.

Subject: [Finale] OT ... commissions
Reply-To: [email protected]
I've just been offered a commission to write a choral piece. Though
I've done a lot of composing, this is the first time for me in the
world of commissions. If there is such a thing, what might be the
going rate for an SATB piece for a church choir of 20 singers,
lasting about 3 minutes? I told the person wanting the work that I
honestly didn't know what to ask, but that I'd look around ...
hence, this message. She supposed that something between $500 and a
grand might be a reasonable range ... what say ye?
