Total Budget
EOSystems engineers have obtained the following values either by communicating directly with manufacturers or using existing prices to make educated inferences. We realize the lander estimate may appear low, but the major cost components are considered in other subsystems. This exceeds our predicted estimate of $20 million, but we feel our estimates are conservative and believe that actual costs will be lower. Additionally, we are confident that we will successfully earn the additional prize money of $5 million for the long range travel, survival of a lunar night, and discovery of man-made artifacts. This concludes that EOSystems has a sound business plan.
