Re: MW_Theta_13 Electronics

Hi Rick,

The costs in the table are just production costs but at the bottom I
have included 30% of the production costs for EDIA. This is where
the engineering, design, inspection and administrative costs are. I
think this number is a fairly typical percentage.

Regards,

Jim
