6.3.6 Revenue Projection and Rate Analysis

IS Revenue Projection and Rate Analysis provides the
accounting administrator, and other IS management, with an
in-depth analysis of current utilization and revenue and
forecasts future trends.  It also allows you to analyze the
effects of new rates and workloads on present and future
corporate utilization and revenues.

IS Revenue Projection and Rate Analysis focuses on the data
for the last 12 accounting periods.  It takes actual
utilization numbers and forecasts a trend line for
utilization and revenue for the next 12 accounting periods.

New rates can be applied to the actual and forecasted
workloads to perform "what if" analysis for rate setting.
New workloads can be introduced by either adjusting
existing actual utilization figures or inserting new charging
elements and estimated utilization numbers.

Refer to the online help for Enterprise IS Financial
Reporting on the workstation for more information.
