Overall cost: $$$$. Lumber varies by region, species, and season, so we give a band rather than a figure.
Note: the width of 1x3 boards can vary between 2 1/2" and 2 1/4". Make sure 1 of the 1x3 boards is 2 1/2" wide. Cut the 3 sets of legs to 35 1/4" (back leg 2 1/4" wide, faceframe leg 2 1/2" wide and sideframe leg 1 1/2" wide.) On the back legs mark one end 1 1/8" and 5" up, draw a line between the marks. On the faceframe legs mark one end 1 3/8" and 5" up, draw a line between the marks. On the sideframe legs mark one end 3/8" and 5" up, draw a line between the marks. Use a saw (ie circular saw or jig saw) to cut the tapers on the legs.
In both ends of the faceframe rails and faceframe stile, drill pocket holes for 3/4" material. On the faceframe rail mark from the ends 25 1/2". Attach the faceframe stile between the faceframe rails and use wood glue and 1 1/4" pocket hole screws to secure in place. On the faceframe legs, mark down from the top 26 1/4", this is the location of the lower rail. Use wood glue and 1 1/4" pocket hole screws to attach the faceframe rails to the legs.
Drill pocket holes for 3/4" material down the sideframe legs to attach the sideframe to the faceframe.
Line up the tops of the faceframe and sideframes, also line up the sideframes with the sides of the faceframe. Use wood glue and 1 1/4" pocket hole screws to attach the sideframe legs to the faceframe. If needed, use the appropriate length brad nails to secure the tapered part of the sideframe legs.
On the divider 3/4" plywood piece, mark from the top 1 1/2" and 3/4" from the side. Use a jigsaw or equivalent to cut out the 3/4" x 1 1/2" notch. In the bottom, side and top drill pocket holes for 3/4" material.
Use a shelf pin jig or 1/4" drill bit (drilling to a depth of 3/8") to place adjustable shelves where desired. Put shelf pins in place and dryfit shelves, trim shelves as needed.
Cut the back piece from 5 mm (about 1/4") underlayment plywood, dryfit and trim as needed. Use brad nails to secure the back into place (nail into the upper support and bottom plywood).
