A cost estimate is the approximation of the cost of a program, project, or operation. The cost estimate is the product of the cost estimating process. The cost estimate has a single total value and may have identifiable component values. A problem with a cost overrun can be avoided with a credible, reliable, and accurate cost estimate. Cost estimate is also the summation of individual cost elements, using established methods and valid data, to estimate the future costs of a program, based on what is known today.
