I would try to convince them to drop the ceilings. If they say no, you have three options:
1. Walk away.
2. Take the job and subby it out so you don't have to deal with the hassle of actually doing the job, make a small bit on the side from it.
3. Think of a number, quadruple it, add 50%, double it, and then put your (day rate x days) equation on top, and charge that.
I'd do 3.
