Description: The purpose of this thesis is to present a military manpower costing model which is appropriation oriented to be used for budget planning purposes. The purpose of the model is to arrive at a more refined cost estimate for individual officers or groups of officers based on their area of specialization and qualifications. This model is intended for use by program sponsors in the planning and budgeting of billets for their programs and personnel for the billets. The Officer Billet Cost Model is constructed showing variation in officer costs by paygrade. Pay components of the Military Personnel, Navy(MPN)account that could not be assigned to individual groups of officers were incorporated in a basic cost model. Pay components of the MPN account that could be assigned by designator were incorporated into individual submodels.
