1. Top-down versus bottom-up estimates. pts. a. Describe the methods and uses of each of the approaches. 2. Compare the advantages and disadvantages of each of the approaches. 3. What are the three types of costs discussed in the text? Define them. 4. For a small project requiring 120 hours at $50/hr and having a direct overhead rate of 40%, calculate the direct cost (Exercise 1 in Chapter 5). To that add indirect costs (G&A) at 20% and then profit at 20% for a total project price. What are the estimated costs for: Design Programming In-house testing Which “approach to estimating” is this? What weaknesses are inherent in this approach? 5. Take another look at Exercise #5. Use Exercise Figure 5.1 on page 160. But now you are asked to do a bottom-up estimate based on the following data and compare it with the top-down estimate of $800,000. If confronted with these two estimates, what, if any, actions would you take? Deliverables Estimated Hours Rate:…

Q1: Consider a simple three-step manufacturing process as illustrated in the given figure. Assuming that demand is 1,000 units, what is the required input to meet demand? Assume that the scrap cost is $5 at process 1, $10 at process 2, and $15 at process 3. The defective rates are 3%, 5%, and 7%, respectively. Compute the total scrap cost for the given system. 1 d₂ = 3% 2 d₂ = 5% 3 d₂ = 7%
