The purpose of MINCIR is to tell your router that "you will back off no
less than 'x' Kbps". CIR is the target, MINCIR is typically half of
that (reached by two BECN's received).
What you program your router to target by specifying CIR is not
necessarily equal to what you have purchased from your provider for CIR.
So this becomes one of those statistical games you can play in order to
maximize performance on your WAN while saving money!

I know this sounds silly, but what is the purpose of MINCIR??!?! Unless
everything I've ever learned about Frame Relay is wrong, CIR is a
COMMITTED Information Rate, i.e. the bandwidth that's guaranteed to you
as a customer with no drops during congestion. So why in the world
would you ever configure a MINCIR that's isn't exacly the same as your
CIR?!?!?
Any input is appreciated.

Remember that the value of Be includes the value of Bc; Be is not an
increment value over Bc.
This may be more accurate:
Bc = CIR * Tc
Max Be = Access Rate * Tc
