This book was released on 1978 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy maintains its fleet of 460 support vessels at an annual cost of $3 billion. This cost troubles Congress, which directed the Secretary of Defense to relate readiness more directly to the maintenance effort. The Navy has adopted the commercial aircraft maintenance concept of performing only the tasks necessary to retain design levels of safety and reliability. For tankers and cargo vessels, lower maintenance costs may be achieved in this manner, while sustaining readiness levels. Although Navy support ships operated much less than their civilian counterparts, Navy craft cost much more to maintain. Part of the disparity is due to the combat environment in which Navy ships operate, with numerous battle systems, large crews, and armaments, but some of the disparity is also related to the Navy policy of regular overhaul of ships and equipment for military readiness. The commercial shipping "prudent-risk" maintenance schedule may have applications for Navy support craft. The Navy has not adequately analyzed its readiness requirements in relation to maintenance expenditures, nor developed an adequate system for quantifying readiness. Navy maintenance policy has evolved without systematically considering the probability of equipment damage or failure, related maintenance consequences, the possible effect on ship missions and readiness levels, or the extensive facilities necessary for repairs between overhauls.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major differences between Navy and commercial maintenance costs result from contrasts in missions as well as in maintenance philosophies and practices. To keep its ships combat ready, the Navy has adopted an overhaul policy which requires regularly scheduled overhaul of support and combat ships. Further, repairs are sometimes made to equipment which is operating satisfactorily. This is justified on the basis that they may improve its reliability. In summary, the Navy may well be spending a great deal for a small increase in reliability. In contrast, commercial firms perform only a minimal amount of scheduled maintenance. This practice allows for a prudent-risk and is geared toward being profit oriented. Consequently, they accept a small risk and only repair as needed instead of performing comprehensive overhauls that may increase reliability. (Author).

This book was released on 1986 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviewed the estimated and actual costs to overhaul Navy ships at private shipyards. We obtained information on the 105 regular ship overhauls performed in private shipyards from fiscal year 1982 through May 1985. We (1) compared contract award amounts, government estimates, and final contract prices, (2) reviewed selected contract modifications and ascertained their effect on contract costs, and (3) contrasted the size of price increases in the fixed-price contracts with those in the cost type contracts. We also reviewed Navy policies for distributing overhaul work geographically.
Book Synopsis Estimating Operating and Support Cost Models for U.S. Naval Ships by : Chung-wu Ting
Download or read book Estimating Operating and Support Cost Models for U.S. Naval Ships written by Chung-wu Ting and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the end of the Cold War, the winds of military downsizing are blowing all over the world. Downsizing means fewer personnel, less facilities and smaller military budget. Therefore, understanding the relationships among factors responsible for force operating costs is extremely important when facing downsizing budgetary decisions. This study analyzes the U.S. Navy main combatant vessels' Operating and support costs. It seeks to reveal basic relationships of O and S costs through accounting and structural methods. The accounting oriented analysis found the VAMOSC-SHIPS and Jane's combined database to be relatively accurate with the exception of nuclear submarines and nuclear aircraft carriers. The structural analysis found that the overhaul cost should be analyzed separately due to essential differences used to calculate overhaul costs and a 1985 policy revision to ship overhaul. O and S cost relationships between factors other than overhauls were strong. Manpower was found to have the most dramatic effect on determining O and S costs.

Book Synopsis The Philosophy of Taxation and Public Finance by : Robert W. McGee
Download or read book The Philosophy of Taxation and Public Finance written by Robert W. McGee and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most public finance books are texts, which are aimed at undergraduate or graduate students. They are overly technical in nature and appeal only to a narrow range of bureaucrats and academics. Books on taxation are written for tax practitioners and usually emphasize either what the law is or how to maneuver through the labyrinth of tax law to minimize taxes for clients. Philosophy books on taxation or public finance simply do not exist. The Philosophy of Taxation and Public Finance is different. It is written in nontechnical language and is aimed to appeal to a wide range of readers, including practitioners, academics and students in the fields of taxation, public finance, economics, law, philosophy and political science as well as general readers who are interested in learning why they are being taxed the way they are. The author addresses the major issues and topics in taxation and public finance and injects them with philosophical insights. He discusses questions such as: -What arguments have been used to justify taxation? -When is tax evasion unethical? -Are some taxes better than others? -What are the proper functions of government? -How much is enough? Is the ability to pay concept valid? -When can punitive taxes be justified?
