Description
The fourth edition of this text has streamlined the material into 15 chapters. The sequence flows through fundamentals required for economic analysis, structural procedures for performing those analyses, specific considerations for the public sector, depreciation and income tax considerations, inflation considerations, advanced concepts, including risk and decision. An emphasis on a clear writing style with numerous examples and review exercises offsets traditional ideas that the subject matter can be dull.
