Life cycle cost analysis
A life cycle cost analysis calculates the cost of a system or product over its entire life span.
The analysis of a typical system could include costs for:
- planning,
- design,
- development,
- production,
- maintenance,
- disposal or salvage.
This cost analysis depends on values calculated from other reliability analyses like failure rate, cost of spares, repair times, and component costs.
