Factored Cost Estimates
(With Inflation Indexing)

Example of Factored Cost
Estimating
Shaft Sinking - USBM Cost Estimating
System
–
Shaft sinking cost a function of 3 curves
Labor
Supplies
Equipment
–
Operation
All functions are dependent on shaft area
Note
that with one parameter (how big do you want
it?) you can do all costs without engineering detail
–
Output is cost per meter of shaft sunk (need to
know how deep you’ll go)
The Labor Curve
YL = 615.595 * (X)0.542
–
We were doing a 20 ft diameter shaft
–
X is the shaft area in square meters
about 29.2 meters square
Plug and Chug
–
$3833/meter of depth
Modification Factors
Difficulty and cost of a shaft is a function of
both size and rock hardness
Adjusting for rock hardness
–
–
–
FL = 0.388*(C)0.093
C is average rock strength in psi
suppose this is a coal operation through
sedimentary rock with 17,000 psi
Plug and Chug
–
0.96
Applying Modification Factor
$3,833.16/meter * 0.96 = $3,679.65
Shaft Depth
–
better consider that we do leave a sump area
below the last level accessed
(obviously
–
750 feet of depth
about
–
need some industry specific knowledge)
228.66 meters
Estimated Shaft Cost for Labor
$841,343
The Cost Indexing Bugaboo
Cost base for USBM CES is 1984
–
Need to inflation adjust
Use US Bureau of Labor Statistics
–
–
–
Can’t really use the PPI this time
PPI is an index of what industries sell their
goods for
This is a labor cost
BLS
still has an index
Raiding the BLS Web Site
Go to www.bls.gov
Under Industries
–
Takes to Compensation Cost Trends Area
Home Page
–
Go to employment costs
Go to get detailed statistics
Look at Create Customized Tables
–
Choose Employer Cost for Employee
Compensation (ECEC)
Continue the Raid
Now on National Employment, Hours and
Earnings area
–
Select “Average Hourly Earnings of Production
Workers”
do note that these earnings figures are not going to include
fringe costs
Note that these kinds of figures can be selected for a region of
the country too
–
–
Since we are updating a national average manual we need to use
the national statistics
Select Mining code 100000
Note that could pick specific industries within mining
–
we are working coal but shaft sinking is sort of its own area

Using the Goodies
Our figures give average wage excluding
fringe
–
Our cost manual gave employer cost including fringe as $16.35/hr
in 1984
Fringe costs are usually a function of wage

unemployment
retirement
(Health insurance probably only stick in the mud)

Finish Getting Our 1984 Cost
Apply rock hardness correction
–
$1196.43 * 0.9798 = $1172.22
Use the depth of the shaft
–
228.66 * $1172.22 = $268,000
(note
that rounding is being done down road)
Leaves us with need to update to current
costs
–
Our contractor probably buys direct from
wholesaler (PPI type update)
A Specific Basket of Goods
Needs specific supplies
–
–
–
–
–
21% cost due to explosives
34% steel items
38% misc items
6% electricity
1% timber
We will need a weighted average of several
cost indices
–
PPI is broken down into specific sub-indexes
Indices to Use
Have to use codes to get

–
past has been SIC code number (from IRS)
June 2003 plans to switch to NAIC codes

–
Numbers won’t change much for mining

help the service industries
Chemical is 06
–
Explosives are a specific type of chemical
067902
Iron and Steel 101 for the steel items

Miscellaneous Items
–
Use PPI industrial commodities index
already
a weighted average we don’t want to worry
about
Electricity
–
–
05 is energy
0543 is industrial power
Timber
–
–
08 is wood products
Mines use mostly softwood - 0811
