Termination Liability Curve Study.

Abstract

This study provides the results of analyzing cumulative cost incurred patterns from a cross-section of armament and ammunition orders from Headquarters, Armament, Munitions, and Chemical Command. The study was performed to develop a termination liability curve to cover the costs incurred by the Government in the event of contract cancellation of an order in production. This study represents an update of previous efforts in this area. Particular emphasis was given to items which are known to be common Foreign Military Sales items. This document provides composite regression plots for ammunition items and for armament items. Also provided are study assumptions and methodology along with a breakdown of the samples used. Keywords include: foreign military sales, termination liability curves, regression analysis.
