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. 588 Description based upon print version of record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Public works|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85108858|xCost effectiveness.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99004945 650 7 Public works|xCost effectiveness.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1083379 650 7 Public works.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1083369 653 cost benefit analysis (CBA) 653 local government 653 project evaluation 653 discount rate 653 willingness to accept 653 willingness to pay 653 economic efficiency 653 positive time preference 653 net discounted benefits 653 present value of costs 653 present value of benefits 653 social welfare functions 653 externalities/spillovers 653 cost effectiveness analysis 653 benefits ratio 653 sensitivity analysis 653 market failure 653 government failure 653 standing 653 external/social costs 653 external/social benefits 653 existence values 653 hedonic valuation 653 hypothetical contingent valuation 653 rent seeking 653 regulatory capture 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Keating, Maryann O.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n80062391|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9781606496367 830 0 2013 digital library. 830 0 Economics collection.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2013075118|x2163-7628 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=669278|zOnline eBook.
