APPENDIX B: DETAILED REVERSE ENGINEERING COST ESTIMATES AND 

EQUIPMENT DATA 

The following tables present the detail ed cost estimates trom the reverse engineering analysis 

for each product class aggregated by effi ciency level. Values in Bold typeface have been substituted 

from other product classes in accordance with the rul es presented in Section 4.2.7. Values in normal 

typeface result directly from the reverse engineering methodology detailed in Appendix C. 

The charts and graphs following the tables provide information on the distribution of the 

design options included in the reverse engineering samples at each efficiency level. It is important 

to keep in mind that the reverse engineering sampl e represents only a small portion of product 

currently on the market. Since manufacturers identified the samples as being the closest avail able 

representation of their baseline product under new efficiency levels, they do not necessaril y represent 

the most prevalent equipment sold and used today. Fmthermore, products under new standards 

would likely evolve to be more uniform in design than those illustrated.
