Of course you should--the 10 SLOC/day figure is for the entire
development process, from the end of requirements definition through
delivery.
Assuming you spent a day deciding what the program should do and look
like, that's 302 days, which still gives about 50 SLOC/day. Of course,
if you could get the same functionality with 1500 hand-written SLOC,
hand coding would only take you 150 days.
