From the above, it appears as though there is only an estimated $5,000 cushion

at thie time. Cooper feels that their overhead rate may go down slightly which
eould give us an additional eushion. Labor costs in the above estimate include
presently approved extenied workweeke.
The above estimates provide for 30 man months of effort at EPG.

Roughly speak-

ing, the cost per man day at EPG is about $100.00; therefore, Dr. Fleming is

faced with the problem of the possibility of an extended test period ami plans

te achedule Cooper EPG manpower in an effort to keep the total manpover used
at EPG within the 30 man months budgeted.
