A type of cost reimbursement contract that assigns minimal responsibility for costs and for which a fixed fee is negotiated. The fee provides an incentive for a subcontractor to contract for efforts that might otherwise pose too great a risk to it to assume.

How much did he first desktop computer cost?

The first computers had no fixed selling price. They were usually built on cost plus fixed fee contracts, because the people making them could not guess at final cost to build them. For example the ENIAC was estimated at $50,000 when the Army signed the cost plus contract. The Army eventually payed a bit more than $500,000. The UNIVAC I original fixed price contracts were for $250,000 but when the machine went into production its actual price was $2,500,000. Remington Rand lost lots of money on the first two UNIVAC's sold as the company had to pay the difference between cost to build and what the customer payed!
