How much money would they save...
...if they just fired
all these "analysts"?
The analysts had to also estimate how often people with disabilities play miniature golf and whether they would go more often if courses were more wheelchair-friendly.
Then they needed to determine how much time those golfers would save via the new requirements. (According to the DoJ, about 7.2 minutes per visit.)
Finally, they calculated how much the miniature-golfers would benefit—in total, about $485 million worth over 40 years. The same logic can be applied to figure the benefits of more accessible fishing piers, bowling alleys, and ATMs.
