Find the minimal and maximal amounts of money in the following base 10 alphametics:

NOW+SHOW+ME+YOUR=MONEY

For both cases find the values corresponding to "WHY","WHEN", & "WHO ME".

A computer listing shows me that this arrangement has 12 solutions if the max-min stipulation is disregarded.  For that MONEY has values between 12000 and 17000.

I shall withhold those results (and program) so that this entry does not become a spoiler for those attempting a pencil and paper effort.
