The cost savings for Y-917, Y-988, Y-4S62, Y-4572 and Y-4373 appear to be excessively high. The reason for this is that Reading's 1972 cost for V-2283 is fl.19 while in Cleveland the cost is $1*01. The projected oost of V-2377 (replacement for V-2283) at Cleveland figured from pro duction sheet is $.93. Our computer has been using $.95 which was used for these formulas.
