Back in the glory days of Big-6 consulting, that was called the
T.H.U.D. Factor(TM).
In order to bill a client excessive amounts of cash for a
quickly-written paper, you needed to ensure an adequate T.H.U.D.
Factor for proper justification of funds appropriation to suit your
needs.
Analysis of T.H.U.D. is simple - pick up the tome, drop it on your
desk, and measure the sound in decibels.
