What is the feasible budget region? consulting the business unit or department to be involved in the project? manager Sean Shawn employed the analogy with adjustment method to esti- mate the cost of constructing a three-car garage. Specifically, he started with the cost of an average two-car garage, $43,000, and increased it by 50 percent to $64,500. Comment on the likely accuracy of the three-car garage estimate. Sug- gest a different approach that might yield a more accurate cost estimate, and then use this approach and made-up time and cost figures to compute the esti- mate. Argue why your estimate is better than Sean's. See Chapter 5, Figure 5.19, for Sean's WBS. The example in Table 8.2 shows three possible ways of apportioning total direct costs. Using the same example, suppose the direct non-labor (DNL) cost and 28. G&A are broken down as follows: Direct Non-Labor MARS PLUTO G&A Materials 30 Freight Tools Fill & Si 20. What ex 21.
