Are you using JDK 1.4? JDK 1.4 will ignore the getCost() method that returns a java.util.List, if you change it to an array then it will consider that method part of the indexed property and everything will probably work. It probably would work under JDK 1.3, but Sun tightened up on how it treats indexed properties.
