Product Description
This revision of the author's bestselling earlier work on cost estimating has been updated to provide currently applicable examples, data and techniques. Two new chapters have been added covering: computer tools and models for cost estimating, where to get these tools, and the features to look for; software cost estimating with special emphasis on the effect of CASE tools on software productivities and resulting software costs. A complete set of inflation tables is now included to permit conversion from any year dollars to any other year dollars from 1959 through 1997. Retains its comprehensive coverage of the elements needed to embark on a cost estimating task. Strengthened are the invaluable parts of the book which tell the estimator how to produce a competitive and credible cost estimate. Manufacturing standards for hardware and electronics are retained as are handy tables for determining the costs of engineering, design, documentation, drafting and testing.

 Great tool for pricers! July 10, 2010
Bobbycarll (Sequim, WA USA)
I was a cost estimator by trade and training. This is one of the few text books I've found that has a lot of real-world application and value. If your business requires that you prepare detailed, auditable proposals with solid 'Bases of Estimates,' this is a good book for your library.

I purchace this book for a cource that I am taking at EMU. It turned out that it was the wrong edition, and when I tried to contact the seller about returns and refund I never got a responce back. While it turned out to not be what I was actually wanted in terms of shipping it did come in a timely fashion, but that is the only plus.
