About this book

This work sets out in some detail the nature of calculations required in practical cost-benefit analysis. It also considers non-priced benefits and costs in several relevant case studies. In addition to the more familiar applications in the areas of transport and forestry the authors consider examples such as computer selection; and discuss how it is possible to take several different views about the desirability of asset disposal in the public sector.
