Direct Material

G&A Overhead

Utilities


2) Which of these statements below is correct regarding the criteria for classifying a special test
equipment cost as an "other direct cost”? [ Determine if the other direct costs are properly proposed
]
Engineered, designed, fabricated, or modified to meet specific contract needs and cannot be used
for other contracts
An item (e.g., fixture, pattern, or gauge) that is necessary in aiding the development of a unique
product
Engineered, designed, fabricated, or modified to meet not only the requirements of the current
contract but also the requirements of all other contracts
Developed and engineered by a subcontractor who is not currently working on another contract

3) Which of the following is an indirect cost pool? [ Identify indirect cost pools and bases ]

General and Administrative Expenses
Direct material
Assembly labor

,Manufacturing labor

4) What two costs elements are required to calculate an indirect cost rate? [ Identify the process of
calculating indirect cost rates]
Expense pool and Allocation base
Overhead rate and Expense base
Allocation Pool and Expense base
Allocation base and Overhead rate
5) Which of the following is a phase in the allocation cycle? [ Identify the cost allocation cycle
]

Final Allocation Phase
Interim Processing Phase
Adjustment on Rates Phase
Continuous Rate Application Phase

6) How is simple linear regression used? [Identify what regression analysis is] [
Remediation Accessed : N ]
To make predictions about one dependent variable based on one independent variable
To make predictions about one dependent variable based on more than one independent
variable
To calculate an estimate that demonstrates the most likely average value based on the data
supplied
To ensure contractor’s estimates properly capture the reduction of labor costs associated
with repetitive production tasks

7) Which regression method assumes a linear relationship between the dependent and
independent variables? [ Identify the different regression analysis methods ]
Simple linear regression
Local regression
Segmented regression
Curvilinear regression

8) Identify the situation where you would use simple linear regression. [ Identify
contract pricing situations where simple regression analysis should be considered]

Indirect cost rate analysis

,Labor classification analysis
Facilities Capital Cost of Money calculation
Profit objective calculation

9) After completing the five-step Least-Best-Squares-Fit (LBSF) process in developing a regression
equation, you must evaluate which two aspects of the equation? [ Identify the steps for using simple
regression analysis] [ Remediation Accessed :N ]
"Goodness" of the fit and statistical significance
Coefficient of determination and the median
Prediction interval and significance level
Standard error of the estimate and the mean

10) Which situation below would you use improvement curve analysis to evaluate proposed costs?
[ Identify situations where improvement curve analysis would be appropriate ]

Assembly line with high proportion of manual labor
Fully automated assembly line
Production facility specializing in “one-off” or unique item production
Fabrication plant that generates 100,000 units per month
11) What is the first step in conducting improvement curve analysis? [ Identify the steps for
using improvement curve analysis]
Collect the historical data
Calculate the rate of improvement
Calculate the slope of the curve
Determine the Theoretical value of unit #1

12) Given the improvement curve data, calculate the cost objective for unit # 8.
Labor hours for unit #4: 120 hours
Labor hours for unit #1: 160 hours
Rate of improvement: 10%
Improvement curve slope: 90%

Treasury rate is not used in calculating FCCOM
Multiplied by the FCCOM total amount
Divided by the Weighted Guidelines profit objective

14) Which of the following statements is true concerning profit/fee calculations? [
Identify the factors affecting profit/fee analysis]
Profit/fee objectives are a product of risk
Profit/fee is calculated differently depending on DPAS rating of the contract
Profit/fee objectives are reduced by the cost efficiency factor

subsequent modifications

15) When is the working capital adjustment used while calculating profit/fee? [
Calculate a profit/fee using the appropriate structured approach]
On all fixed price contracts with progress payments
On all fixed price contracts
On all fixed price contracts with financing
On all fixed price contracts with performance based payments

16) What is the “base” that used in the calculation of the performance risk, contract type

objective? [– Develop a prenegotiation position for profit or fee that is fair and reasonable.]
Total costs
Subtotal of costs
Total price
Direct and Indirect costs

17) Which of the following factors is critical to a successful negotiation? [ Identify
factors that contribute to success in any negotiation]
