How is damage calculated?

I am a small guns guy, but I pick up other guns to repair and sell... I got a few rocket launchers and got the CND up pretty high, and its damage in my Pip-boy reads around 60+ which is pretty awesome. Now, my big guns skill is only 19.

 

So is damage skill based or CND based? If both - at what ratio? I always assumed it was both but maybe I am wrong.

 

Anyone care to comment?

I know it is both, but I don't know at what ratio. I'm pretty certain CND is more important, because even a minor improvement in condition can significantly increase damage, while it takes a pretty large increase in corresponding skill to increase damage a lot. However, a better skill also improves accuracy, which, if you can get head shots and such, lowers the amount of damage you need to do.
