Zusammenfassung:The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates the maintenance and execution of a software offering. During operation, the system obtains a total revenue associated with the software offering and a set of weight vectors associated with a multidimensional model of the software offering, wherein each of the weight vectors comprises a set of revenue weights. Next, the system calculates a set of component revenues associated with a set of service components and a set of resources used by the software offering by applying the total revenue and the weight vectors to the multidimensional model. Finally, the system uses the component revenues to facilitate management of the software offering.
