This document estimates the cost and effort required for a software project with the following details:
- The project involves 9,500 lines of code spread across 4 modules: Search, Register, Display, and Posts/Blog.
- Based on an average productivity rate of 900 lines of code per person per month, the estimated effort is 11 person-months.
- Using an estimated labor cost of $25,000 per person per month, the total estimated project cost is $287,875.
- A function point analysis estimates the project scope at 189 function points based on counts of inputs, outputs, inquiries, files. Various complexity factors are also assessed to determine the overall effort.
