IBM ratings are, I believe, what is expected here.  That formula would work if 
I had access to our GCP %CPU busy statistics, but I do not.  Application teams 
do not even have read access to SMF data, nor access to the reporting tools for 
it.

I can request a number from our Capacity and Performance team and see what they 
say.

statistics?

I would recommend finding out which MIPS ratings your management wants/expects 
(IBM, Gartner, Cheryl Watson, or whoever).  Once you have their preferred MIPS 
rating for your machine, just multiply your GCP %CPU Busy by that number and 
report it.  I would also recommend you ignore that number for any real capacity 
planning exercises - but that's just my opinion.
