wiring for a woodshop/ question

[jesseh712]

I am installing a 100 amp subpanel in a shed being used as a woodshop. Ive got the trench dug 24in. the wire length is looking about 140-160ft. sched 40 pvc at 24in, sched 80 at 18in to the LB. At this length what amp rating should my wire be rated for and what kind of wire would be recommended to keep the cost down?
