If a homework assignment takes 40 hours then it’s likely that either you’re under-qualified or the company has some unrealistic expectations regrading the position.
Either way, you should reconsider your application.

I don't regularly program these days but for work I often do (preparing/giving presentations, writing of various types) I could trivially come up with an assignment that would take a person skilled in the topic the better part of a week to do--especially given that they'd want to make their "homework" particularly impressive.
