ENIAC was designed for one purpose and one purpose only. The human computers at the Army's BRL at Aberdeen were totally overwhelmed computing firing tables for all the new models of Artillery and new conditions in which they operated in during WW2. ENIAC was supposed to do these calculations faster. Work began in 1942 but it was not completed until late 1945, so it was not able to contribute to the war. Its first big problem was simulation of Teller's "Classical Super" fusion bomb from December 1945 through January 1946, which showed that it could not work due to excessive radiative heat loss.

How much was the eniac computer sold?
ENIAC was never sold, it was built to order on a cost plus wartime Army contract. The original estimated cost to build ENIAC in the contract was roughly $50,000, however by the time it was finished the final cost was over $500,000. About a year after completion, ENIAC was dissembled and shipped to the BRL Aberdeen where it was used for about a decade. The Army owned it from the day the contract was signed until it was retired.
