Briefly identify three commonly used economic cost-benefit analysis techniques
What will be an ideal response?
Break-even analysis (BEA) is the process of finding the amount of time required for the cumulative cash flow from a project to equal its initial and ongoing investment. Net present value (NPV) uses a discount rate determined from the company's cost of capital to establish the present value of a project. Return on investment (ROI) is the ratio of the net cash receipts of the project divided by the cash outlays of the project. A trade-off analysis can be made among competing projects.
