Disclaimer:
I don't know anything about this service other than what Michael
Zimmers has posted, so I'm not making any claims about the value
of the service or about the reliablity of the report.

This information does raise the question of the basis for the
guaranteed markup.  When we say "over cost", what cost do we
mean?  According to which version of the "invoice"?
