Description
The fourth edition of this text continues to be a comprehensive, authoritative and interesting resource for introductory and advanced courses in Engineering Economics. This new edition has streamlined the material into 15 accessible, readable chapters. The sequence of chapters flows through: 1) Fundamentals required for economic analysis; 2) Structural/procedures for performing those analyses; 3) Specific considerations for the public sector; 4) Depreciation and income tax considerations; 5) Inflation/considerations; and 6) Advanced concepts, including risk and decision. An emphasis on a clear, interesting writing style with numerous examples and review exercises offsets traditional ideas that the subject matter can be dull.
