Actual cost is the total amount of materials, labor costs, and any directly associated overhead costs that can be charged to a specific project. This is different from the standard cost, although both approaches are often used to evaluate the profitability of a given project.
Estimating by actual costs is, essentially, an extrapolation of current program cost. In other words, current contract cost trends are used to estimate final system cost. The cost data is internal to the current system being constructed, which is not the same as âactualâ historical data.
