Traduction de «méthode des coûts différentiels » (Français → Anglais) :

‘Long Run Incremental Costs (LRIC)’ means the incremental costs corresponding to a time horizon where all factors of production, including capital equipment, are variable in response to changes in demand due to changes in the volume or in the structure of production.

An incremental cost approach which allocates only efficiently incurred costs that would not be sustained if the service included in the increment was no longer produced (i.e. avoidable costs) promotes efficient production and consumption and minimises potential competitive distortions.

BNetzA proposes to use the Long-Run Average Incremental Cost+ (LRAIC+) method of calculation, whereas the Commission recommends the Bottom Up Long-Run Average Incremental Cost (pure BU-LRIC) approach.

(Return tabled) Question No. 849 Hon. Stéphane Dion: With regard to the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program, since the beginning of Canada's participation: (a) what are the criteria (operational requirements, contractual conditions, etc) on which the government is selecting the F-35s as a replacement for the CF-18s; (b) when and by whom were those criteria determined; (c) what are the relevant studies which were conducted prior to determining those criteria, specifying the (i) dates, (ii) names of the studies, (iii) names of individuals requesting the studies, (iv) authors of the studies, (v) names of the individuals presented with the ...[+++]results; (d) before those criteria were determined, on the basis of what information did the government evaluate that the F-35 could satisfy Canada's needs; (e) since the beginning of Canada's participation in the JSF program, what were all the studies conducted that evaluated different fighter planes in relation to Canada's needs, specifying the (i) dates, (ii) names of the studies, (iii) names of individuals requesting the studies, (iv) authors of the studies, (v) studies which were used to evaluate the planes, (vi) names of the individuals who determined those criteria, (vii) planes which were considered in the study, (viii) names of the individuals presented with the results; (f) what is the operational availability of a fleet of 65 fighter jets; (g) what effect will a reduction in Canada's fleet of fighter jets have on operational capability, on Canada's ability to play its role within the North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD) and on the distribution of fighter jets across Canada's military bases; (h) how did the government determine that Canadian Forces needed 65 planes; (i) what is the formula used to determine the number of planes Canada should buy and who is the author of that formula; (j) for each of the variables in that formula, how was the value of that variable determined, specifying by whom, based on ...

Those budget numbers resulting from the November due diligence meetings, to which I have referred, are: The Expo corporation's share is $64 million; the City of Edmonton's incremental costs are $8 million; the Province of Alberta's incremental costs are $8 million; and the Government of Canada's costs — including federal coordination and oversight, RCMP, internationally protected persons, Canadian Security Intelligence Service and Integrated Threat Assessment Centre threat assessment and Canada Border Services Agency border and entry costs — are $10.9 million, for a total of $91 million.

It is recommended that the evaluation of efficient costs is based on current cost and the use of a bottom-up modelling approach using long-run incremental costs (LRIC) as the relevant cost methodology.
