HOW TO ESTIMATE THE INVESTMENT COST OF ELECTRONIC DATA PROCESSING EQUIPMENT

Abstract

This document seeks to provide practical guidance to analysts charged with estimating the investment costs of the electronic data processing equipment of Air Force Command and Control systems. The document is also offered as a methodological prototype for writing similar item-oriented reports on other major items of Air Force systems, such as communications equipment, radar, sensors, display equipment, computer programming, and the major subsystems of aircraft, ballistic missiles, and space systems.
