The cost benefit technique is so often referenced in government policy that a correct understanding is necessary for officials entrusted with public decisions. It is especially useful for those charged with preparing numerical analyses to assess the worthiness of a specific policy proposal. In this manual, costs and benefits are identified and analyzed in terms of economic efficiency and resource allocation. 001362586 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on January 5, 2014). 001362586 650_0 $$aPublic works$$xCost effectiveness. 001362586 653__ $$acost benefit analysis (CBA) 001362586 653__ $$alocal government 001362586 653__ $$aproject evaluation 001362586 653__ $$adiscount rate 001362586 653__ $$awillingness to accept 001362586 653__ $$awillingness to pay 001362586 653__ $$aeconomic efficiency 001362586 653__ $$apositive time preference 001362586 653__ $$anet discounted benefits 001362586 653__ $$apresent value of costs 001362586 653__ $$apresent value of benefits 001362586 653__ $$asocial welfare functions 001362586 653__ $$aexternalities/spillovers 001362586 653__ $$acost effectiveness analysis 001362586 653__ $$abenefits ratio 001362586 653__ $$asensitivity analysis 001362586 653__ $$amarket failure 001362586 653__ $$agovernment failure 001362586 653__ $$astanding 001362586 653__ $$aexternal/social costs 001362586 653__ $$aexternal/social benefits 001362586 653__ $$aexistence values 001362586 653__ $$ahedonic valuation 001362586 653__ $$ahypothetical contingent valuation 001362586 653__ $$arent seeking 001362586 653__ $$aregulatory capture 001362586 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001362586 7001_ $$aKeating, Maryann O.,$$eauthor. 001362586 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781606496367 001362586 830_0 $$a2014 digital library. 001362586 830_0 $$aEconomics collection.$$x2163-7628. 001362586 852__ $$bebk 001362586 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1570056$$zOnline Access 001362586 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1362586$$pGLOBAL_SET 001362586 980__ $$aBIB 001362586 980__ $$aEBOOK 001362586 982__ $$aEbook 001362586 983__ $$aOnline
