Probabilistic approach was used to estimate the software project size, using the data collected when we developed a tool to estimate the time to complete a new software project, and from The University of Calabar Computer Centre. The Expected size of the Tool was estimated to be 1.463 KSLOC, but when the tool was actually coded, it was found to have 1.530 KSLOC. To validate the tool further, the expected size of revenue collection program for Equity Bank Plc in Nigeria was estimated to be 17.91 KSLOC, but when the program was coded, the actual size was found to be 17.40 KSLOC. Using a two-tailed test it was found that these results were good estimates as the sizes fell within the 99.80 % confidence limit.
