| 2: | Chapter Five - Garrett and Leatherman BACK NEXT WEB BOOK An Introduction to State and Local Public Finance Thomas A. Garrett and John C. Leatherman V. Cost-Benefit Analysis When choosing any course of action, a person inherently performs cost-benefit analysis. The notion is one of assessing alternative available courses, anticipating the positive (benefit) and negative (cost) impacts associated with the alternatives, and selecting the course that provides the greatest net benefit. In making decisions related to public spending, the process is much the same. More formally, it is a process intended to enhance social decision-making related to the efficient allocation of scarce public resources. Typically, cost-benefit analyses (CBA) are used in the selection of alternative policies related to programs, projects or regulations. A. Steps in Performing Cost-Benefit Analysis Conceptually, the steps in performing a CBA are simple. Boardman, et al. (1996) list them as shown in Table 1. As might be expected,however, ... http://www.rri.wvu.edu/WebBook/Garrett/chapterfive.htm |

The author's purpose is to review the use of cost - benefit analysis (CBA) in environmental policy appraisal, focusing on the United Kingdom. Examples of the use of CBA in this context are provided, and the recent historical background to its use explained. The main strengths and weaknesses of CBA from the viewpoint of users are then reviewed, and alternatives to CBA are considered. The author closes by exploring some possible ways forward for the methodology which would be consistent with it becoming more useful and more widely accepted.

| 6: | EPA abstract Environment and Planning A 1998, volume 30, pages 2181 - 2194 Sustainability and cost - benefit analysis C Pires Faculty of Economics, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Travessa Est�va� Pinto, Portugal; Received 21 April 1997; in revised form 2 August 1997; e-mail: cesaltina@usa.net Abstract. In this paper I address the issue of incorporating environmental sustainability in project appraisal. I extend the results of Barbier, Markandya, and Pearce on 'operationalizing' a concept of sustainability into appraisal methods for practical decisionmaking. I generalize their results in two directions. First, I abandon their implicit assumption that benefits and costs of a given project in a given period depend only on the level of activity of the project in the same period. Second, I address the issue of which portfolio of projects to choose. My results show how to modify the net present value criterion for choosing a set of projects in the presence of a sustainability constraint. ... http://www.envplan.com/epa/abstracts/a30/a302181.html |
