Cost Analysis Sample Clauses

Cost Analysis. The recipient must conduct and document a cost analysis for all negotiated contracts over the simplified acquisition threshold and for all change orders regardless of price. A cost analysis is not required when adequate price competition exists and the recipient can establish price reasonableness. The recipient must base its determination of price reasonableness on a catalog or market price of a commercial product sold in substantial quantities to the general public, or on prices set by law or regulation.

Cost Analysis. The Contractor shall submit a completed DOEA Cost Analysis for Non-Competitively Procured Contracts in Excess of Category II to the Department’s Contract Manager by June 30th of each year.

Cost Analysis. This section involves the evaluation and analysis of cost in terms of the creation of contracts and interaction activities. It is important to note that the transaction sender in the blockchain should avoid paying gas fees in reverse contracts using Etherume. However, concerning transaction cost economics, the proposed solution has been argued that, though smart contracts reduce transaction costs related to contracting parties as shown in Table 2. This section includes a discussion of the costs of deployment and interaction that are related to the purchase and sales contracts that have been explained in the section Analysis and Evaluation.

Cost Analysis. Perform cost analyses for various responses, service and support activities.

Cost Analysis. Costs of potential improvements were estimated at milestone years for each entity. Cost analyses focus on the major improvements evaluated and discussed during stakeholder meetings and do not represent all possible alternatives. However, regardless of the improvements which will eventually occur, these costs analyses are believed to represent useful budgetary planning estimates. For improvements projected to occur by 2035, cost estimates included 20-year life cycle cost analyses. These analyses provide an estimate of capital expenditures (i.e., design and construction), periodic costs (i.e., equipment replacement), and annual costs (i.e., operations and maintenance) over a 20-year period. For improvements projected to occur after 2035, cost evaluations were limited to capital expenditures. Life cycle cost evaluations made this far in advance are not likely to be a useful planning tool. Additionally, potential advancements in technology and industry practice could significantly impact the accuracy of such life cycle costs. Capital costs, more easily and accurately estimated, provide entities with benchmark projections. Assumptions were made based on current industry metrics for wastewater improvements and operations. The following assumptions were used in generating life cycle costs: • $20/gallon for wastewater treatment facility construction and expansion • 3.3% annual inflation – (average from 1914-2023) • Periodic equipment replacements/upgrades every 15 years based on data from similarly sized facilities in Georgia • Annual costs, including operation and maintenance based on data from similarly sized facilities in Georgia Wastewater improvement cost evaluations are summarized in the tables below for each entity by the following milestone years: 2035, 2050, 2075.

Cost Analysis. 14.1 For all proposals of Modifications, or repair of equipment submitted by SSTL and in case of termination of this Contract according respectively to the provisions of Clause 13 : Change, Clause 12.5 Repair and Clause 24 Termination, DBSI will be allowed to carry out detailed cost analysis at SSTL's facilities. For this purpose, SSTL will put at DBSI's specialists disposal : production drawings production process sheets provisioning order Hourly rates parts and process list or any other elements reasonably required for the verification of SSTL's prices. 14.2 DBSI undertakes to consider and maintain as secret and confidential all data and documents made available to it for the exercise of the rights granted by the above conditions.

Cost Analysis. A). No cost analysis of the cost of manufacturing the equipment sold shall be supplied, and no examination or audit of the seller's books and records shall be permitted for any reason whatsoever.

Cost Analysis. Figures 3.6 and 3.7 compare costs for resource utilization. We estimate the cost of our department cluster puma, based on its real capital cost and operating expenses, at 2.3¢ per core-hour, which is consistent with other published estimations [52]. For our university cluster ellipse, users pay a flat rate of 5¢ per core-hour. The cost per core for the 16-core EC2 instances applied in the study starts from 3.375¢, if spot requests are used (ec2 spots), or 15¢ for flat-price nodes (ec2 regular). However, as Amazon charges the users for the entire machine, this price increases if not all cores are utilized, as shown on both charts for two first cases. Finally, the cost of lagrange was set at 19.19¢ per core-hour based on the prevailing currency exchange rate. Perhaps unsurprisingly, compute-intensive applications are most cost effective—one obvious reason being that neither clouds nor grids charge for network utilization and all charges are based on nodes. This is readily apparent in the case of the Navier–Xxxxxx application—EC2 costs less than our on-premise cluster and is faster as well. Both figures contain the “ec2 mix” curves which could be viewed as a cost-aware strategy for Amazon’s resources. However, obtaining a large number of hosts via spot requests is difficult if not impossible at all. In our experiments, we were compelled to add regularly-priced hosts to spot-request hosts to obtain the size configuration needed; this is apparent in the convergence of the mix and regular curves.

Cost Analysis. The cost analysis is used for understanding what size of a hub network would provide a cost advantage. With the growth of gas market, more and more natural gas has been traded within Europe as well as North America through pipelines. However, the Asia market is still dominated by LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) transport. The increasing trade of gas in the world market reflects that gas resources to a larger extent are located too far away from the main consuming regions. This may result in the increasing demand of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas). For instance, the annual consumption in North America is almost 30 times as in Middle East (Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx, 2009). Therefore, the transportation cost of LNG becomes an important factor in the growing global natural gas markets. On the other hand, gas could be transported in different ways. Pipeline transportation is another popular approach of gas transportation in European market. A lot of researches in the petroleum industry are particularly focused on the economic aspects. This indicates that pipeline transportation of gas is characterized by economies of scale and large sunk costs (Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, 2008). The most important elements for LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) transportation are liquefaction and shipping costs. Shipping cost is mainly depending on distance. The unit cost of LNG shipping was reduced by 40 percent during the last decades. The reason is that LNG goes by higher volume tankers and the cost of building up ships gets lower. Due to the technology development, offshore pipeline infrastructure cost was also reduced in the 1990s. However, onshore pipeline cost was increased because of higher labour cost. (Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx, 2009). The cost of gas pipeline transportation could be reduced by increasing the scale of pipes, depending on the maximum diameter available. Hence, it is important to decide the width of pipelines. Furthermore, the line cost and compressor station cost should also be considered in the gas pipeline transportation. These costs depend on the diameter and the horsepower capacity, respectively. (Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, 2008).
