COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS - UNDERSTANDING & IMPLEMENTATION

Cost-Benefit Analysis – Understanding & Implementation

Introduction

Cost benefit analysis is concerned with the theory and application of criteria for investment decision-making. The purpose of this course is to develop an understanding of the principles of cost benefit analysis and to indicate the usefulness and limitations of the method by way of project evaluations and other varied examples on its implementation. Such questions as how do we appraise projects under conditions of uncertainty, and what could be done about distributional considerations? The problem of including non-market goods and their valuation is also highlighted and discussed in this workshop. Exercises and cases involving real and simulated cost benefit studies will be given where appropriate supported by use of XL spreadsheets and video discussions.
