That is for you to decide and your client to agree with. Some will
prefer a fixed-cost project, others prefer time sheets. The fact you
are re-using code isn't a bad thing, I mean, you wrote it in the first

Get a good contract. Unless they'll allow PHP script encoding (Zend
Encoder, etc) on their server, you have no other choice.

Depends on country, location within country, age, experience, etc etc
