The paper I wrote for the DoD this last year cost them $2,000 a page (only about a quarter went to me), and so that seems in line with general academic funding.
That is, why am I measuring their expenditure in terms of pages, rather than months? Because Alicorn asked how long the paper was, and I couldn’t help but do that calculation when I saw the grant proposal.
Exactly.
I thought you meant the actually payed per page, something I have heard is costume with course-books in the states. Have always found it to be rather strange.
