project cost estimation

The document outlines a method for calculating the Complexity Adjustment Attributes (CAA) for software projects based on 14 complexity factors, rated on a five-point scale. It provides a formula for determining the CAA and includes a specific example for calculating the Function Points (FP) for a student grade calculation project. The document emphasizes the variability of complexity values based on project needs and importance.

Compute the FP value for the grade calculation of students. Assume that it is an average complexity size project. The
information domain values are as follows: number of inputs = 13, number of outputs = 4, number of inquiries = 2,
number of external files = 5, number of interfaces = 2. The total value of CAA is 13.
