Benefit Cost Analysis - Fundamentals of Engineering Economics 

I've worked with engineers on benefit cost analysis (BCA) for many years. It is such an important input into investment decision-making. It is good you have a video targeting engineers and includes a detailed description of how the BCR is calculated.

awesome.Understood in the first time.Thankyou very much

I just woke up at 3pm and got a exam tomorrow morning. Glad I found this because I can't mug up to even pass

These videos are awesome! Thank you very much. Taking the F.E. next fall.

I've been struggling in this class, while also going through integral calculus. I didn't know about the appendix in my book... weeks of hardship on my timed tests lol professor never mentioned this. Thanks for a great video.

Hi there, thanks for the video. What if I have a negative ratio after comparing 2 alternatives? Would that be classified under

I'm just having trouble picking which thing to use when you write: (F/A,%, n) I never really know which function to work with from the ncees manual

how do you know which Formula to use

Hey my man. Thank you. You help.

its helps my exam thankew sir

In deciding which is better alternative, is the cost that you're talking about, is it in the overall cost of each alternative or the first cost of each alternative?

Thank You Sooooo Much

How do we know to use F/a column?

bless your beautiful soul

very useful for exam purpose

does it have to be PW? can it be AW of benefits/AW of costs or FW of benefits/FW of costs?

Some pls help solve this A company is proposing a new equipment at 36,000. And he feels he will reduce labour and attract high price for his products at 6,800 per year over a period of 8 years. At the end of the 8 years the salvage for the equipment is 3,000. If the opportunity cost is 10%, calculate the benefit cost ratio

I am trying to learn about benefit to cost ratio for a paper and therefore do not have the book you reference so often. For your target audience the lesson is very helpful, but to someone without it, jargon like the A and B abbreviations in the interest chart is left unexplained. Still very helpful, thank you

Thanks Dickmeyer!

at 6:39, why converting annual benefit to present??? can anyone explain this? I checked the rate of return" lecture and explains that it converts to P to A though

Why alternative b is the best? I did not get it.

Great video though. But I'm not certain where the 3 came from, 4% gotten but the 3 how come about it

First!! Good video though, thanks it was helpful.

difference is in absolute value

it's true, but the 'teacher' was simply showing the difference (not considerning the -symbols). cost diff is 46k.

5:20 B-A= -146k-(-100k)= -46k?

plz change the writing way not clear

oh .is time to give free !? college and free university .for USA only that can are children's can have good future?;! OK?;;?
