DoD Inflation Handbook Gregory A. Wise Charles B. Cochran Prepared for Office of the Secretary of Defense Program Analysis and Evaluation February 2006 MCR Federal LLC. McLean, Virginia USA Foreward This book developed from a PA&E analyst s observations that Inflation adjust-ments had been misapplied to several significant analytical products used to in-form decisions in the Department of Defense. In at least one case the misapplica-tion changed the net present value (the deciding factor in the analysis) against the recommendation. The DoD deals in large sums of money, frequently spent over several years. Even small factors can result in large adjustments for major pro-grams. The use of incorrect Inflation indices can easily generate a change of mil-lions of dollars for even a relatively small program. As a result the Office of the Secretary of Defense (Program Analysis and Evalua-tion) decided to contract for this book.
