The results are, (1) including some other categories Ministry of Labor' s survey leave, total direct cost of in-house education is 1.7 times as much as that estimated by Ministry of Labor's survey, and farther, (2)including indirect costs, it is 16.7-times amount.
3. The theoretical estimation based on the "post school investment" model shows that the indirect cost per head in manufacturing industries is 360 thousand yen, which is very close to the cost 293 thousand yen estimated by above questionnaire method.
4. These results tell that the total of in-house education cost of all enterprise in Japan would be about 14,470 billion yen a year in 1988. This figure is equivalent to 4% of GNP.
