CAC Cost v3.0 -- October 3, 2000 These cost estimates represent the average costs of multiple designs at each efficiency level. They are based on 

reverse engineering inputs and assumptions for baseline equipment produced under each designated efficiency 

standard. Cost data were developed from several sources and do not represent the designs or costs of a particular 

manufacturer, component supplier, or product. They may not represent equipment produced under the current 

efficiency standard.

Enter a new cost under "New" next to the desired cost object to see the effect on the relative cost estimate.
