After scrounging the web I found a dead thread on the subject that linked to [hider=Alternate Wars Archive]
[url]http://www.alternatewars.com/Archives/Ships_Data_USN/Ships_Data.htm[/url]
[/hider] which lists the hull and machinery contract costs for Second World War US Destroyers.
Their tables show that ships like the USS Farragut (launched in 1934) had a price of approximately $3,034,500. Hope this helps.
