RISK ANALYSIS HOMEWORK QUESTIONS 1) A contractor has produced the first unit of a laser targeting device at a cost of $45K. Historically, their learning curve has ranged from 88%-92%. The contractor’s manufacturing overhead of 175% is based on business that has already been booked for the coming year that will fully employ their facility and workforce.

The man-hour estimate for test and evaluation was based on using expert opinion to come up with optimistic, pessimistic and most likely positions. This resulted in a triangular distribution with a minimum estimate of 425 hours, a most likely estimate of 500 hours, and an expected maximum of no more than 650 hours. Calculate the variance of this distribution. 4219 2188 92604 525
