  • 0511-450: Benefit-Cost Analysis

    4.00 Credits
    Rochester Institute of Technology

    Explores the use and abuse of benefit-cost and related analytical techniques commonly encountered in economic policy making. Many expenditure and regulatory programs of governmental agencies now are routinely evaluated in a benefit-cost or cost-effectiveness framework, and debate about policy decisions increasingly draws upon benefit-cost findings. Yet, application of benefit-cost analysis often attracts much controversy, in part because of disagreements about how to conduct such analysis and about the role that economic efficiency should play in societal decisions. The mechanics, power and limitations of this form of analysis form the primary elements of the course. Required course for economics majors; part of the economics concentration and minor; and may also be taken as an elective. (0511-211 and 0511-402) Class 4, Credit 4 (offered annually))
