Cost Estimation
An estimate of the effort and duration, associated costs of equipment, travel and
training and the rationale for the calculations

Problem
“The estimator must estimate the effort (person-hours) and duration (calendar-day) for the project to enable managers to determine improtant business measures such as product costs, return on investment, and time to market.”

Recommendation
If you are involved with cost estimation, I recommend the following book
Tom DeMarco, Controlling Software Projects, Yourdon Press, NY c1982
![Page 6: Cost9a 1 Software Estimating Technology: A Survey Richard Stutzke Crosstalk, May96 text pp204-215.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/5697bf751a28abf838c805d7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Definition of Estimate (DeMarco)
Default:– "An estimate is the most optimistic prediction
that has a non-zero probability of coming true" Proposed:
– "An estimate is a prediction that is equally likely to be above or below the actual result"
![Page 7: Cost9a 1 Software Estimating Technology: A Survey Richard Stutzke Crosstalk, May96 text pp204-215.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/5697bf751a28abf838c805d7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Estimates should not become goals
DeMarco argues that the estimation and the management decision about pricing or goals should be separate.
