A system and method for visually processing and presenting cost estimates includes a CPU; primary input hardware for entering data and commands to the CPU; output hardware including a display for displaying information; a memory unit having a stored 2D/3D puzzle database, a stored assembly information record list database, and a stored item information record list database. Drawing board windows, puzzle takeoff windows, item takeoff windows, and assembly takeoff windows allow an operator to create puzzles by drawing or importing images and associate assemblies or material items with them, and by dragging and dropping (copying and pasting) selected puzzles to a drawing board window create a more complex image comprising all previously selected puzzles and generating a cost estimate containing all the assemblies and items associated with the puzzles dragged and dropped (copied and pasted) to the drawing board, without the need for third-party imaging or estimating software.
