Material cost vs Charges per day

How would you calculate the cost of an item that gave 1 raise dead / day

User activated or continuous is SL X CL x 2000

# Charges per day / 5 is the modifier

But the raise dead requires a big material cost so would you pay that x50 like a wand?

Spell has material component cost Add directly into price of item per charge (4)

(4) If item is continuous or unlimited, not charged, determine cost as if it had 100 charges. If it has some daily limit, determine as if it had 50 charges.

So the item has an additional cost of 50 * 5000 gp. So you're item costs over 250,000 gp by the standard rules.

Hmmm, I would say look at the Staff of Life for your item... as staves are now rechargable you basically get 2 raise deads in a day...

That'd only work for 2 days, since you can only recharge one charge/day.

I'd say the price is (1800 * 9 * 5 + 5000 * 50)/5 = 66,200 gp.

Would be SL * CL * 1800 / 5 + 50 * material cost

IIRC that makes it:
5 * 9 * 1800 / 5 + 50 * 5000 = 266,200 gp
