In cases where a delay time in a wire, which connects a first NAND placed on the upstream side and a second NAND placed on the downstream side, is calculated, there are a plurality of logical paths in the first NAND, and a parasitic capacitance of an output pin of the first NAND is determined for each logical path. Therefore, the parasitic capacitance corresponding to each logical path of the first NAND is separated from a fixed load model which indicates a sum of a load of the wire and a capacitance of an input pin of the second NAND, and the parasitic capacitance is added to the fixed load model in the calculation of the delay time. Accordingly, a load for the delay time calculation can be produced while precisely reflecting the parasitic capacitance changing with the logical path on the load production, and the delay time calculation can be performed with high accuracy.
