This document provides information on cost-benefit analysis (CBA). It defines benefits and costs, explains the general steps of CBA including specifying the project, quantifying inputs and outputs, estimating costs and benefits, and comparing costs and benefits. CBA is a technique used to evaluate the economic efficiency of potential government projects or policies by quantifying all relevant costs and benefits, including externalities not captured by the market. The ultimate goal is to determine if the benefits outweigh the costs to help inform decision making.
An economic technique applied to public decision−making that attempts to quantify the advantages (benefits) and disadvantages (costs) associated with a particular project or policy.

NAP Training Viet Nam - Session 7 Appraising Adaptation OptionsUNDP Climate
This two-day workshop supported the Government of Viet Nam in building the necessary capacity to advance its National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. The workshop closely focused on building National Adaptation Plans in the agricultural sector through multi-stakeholder collaboration, and increased knowledge and capacity on a number of topics including: prioritization of adaptation options, cost-benefit analysis, overview of the broad-based nature of climate change adaption impacts, analysis of challenges, and creation of an open discussion with key stakeholders on defining a road-map for the NAP process. The workshop was delivered using discussions and case studies to enhance interactive learning for participants, with supporting presentations by GiZ and SNV.
ost-benefit analysis provides an organizational framework for identifying, quantifying, and comparing the costs and benefits (measured in dollars) of a proposed policy action. The final decision is informed (though not necessarily determined) by a comparison of the total costs and benefits.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2. BENEFIT COST
• Any negative effect on an
organisation resulting from the
implementation of the project.
• Examples:
• Maintenance costs.
• Environment
• Research and development.
• Labour costs.
• A benefit is any positive effect
on the organisation resulting for
the implementation of the
project.
• Examples:
• Increase in productivity.
• Reduction in costs.
• Saving time.
3. WHAT IS COST
BENEFIT ANALYSIS?
• CBA is an economic evaluation
technique that measures all the positive
(beneficial) and negative (costly)
consequences of a program.
• CBA has been established primarily as a
tool for use by the government in making
their social and economic decisions.
• CBA is a decision making device for
evaluating activities that are not priced by
the market.
• CBA attempts to stimulate the market
result in areas where the market does not
operate to establish the prices.
4. CONCEPT OF CBA
• The ultimate aim of a business organization is to make profits.
Therefore, any system in the organization must produce more
benefits as compared to its costs for the organization to survive.
• It is a tool which is adopted by modern financial analysts before
undertaking any financial operation or commercial activity.
BENEFITS >COSTS
5. PRINCIPLES OF CBA
PRINCIPLE 3
Benefits are usually
measured by Market
Choices.
PRINCIPLE 2
CBA valuations should
represent Producers or
Consumers.
PRINCIPLE 1
There must be a common
of the measurement.
PRINCIPLES
6. GENERAL STEPS FOR CBA
STEP 2:
Describe quantitatively the
inputs and outputs of the
program.
STEP 3:
Estimate the social cost and
benefits of these inputs and
outputs of the program.
STEP 1:
Specifying the project
clearly.
STEP 4:
Compare these benefits and
costs.
7. STEP 1: Specify clearly the project
• The first step is to decide on the perspective from which the study is to be done.
• When we have decided on the perspective on the main elements of the projects such as, the
study of the location, timing, group involved, the connection with other program, etc, should
be considered.
• When the project is fixed the following two program are involved:
1. Physical project: These projects are physical in nature, which is done when an area is
polluted. E.g.: Public waste treatment plans, hazardous waste removal, etc.
2. Regulatory project: This project regulates the amount of pollution in the society. E.g.:
Enforcement of environmental law and regulation, water disposal practice, restrictions of
land for certain activities, etc.
8. STEP 2: Describe quantitatively the inputs
and outputs of the project.
• For some projects it is easy to identify the input and output.
• For eg.,if we are planning a waste water treatment project, the staffs of that program will be
able to provide a full physical specification of the plant, together with the inputs required to
build it and keep it running.
• However, it is harder to predict the externalities caused by the disposition of nuclear
waste.
• Because a restriction on development in a particular area can be expected to detect
development elsewhere into the surrounding areas.
9. STEP 3: Estimate the cost and benefit of these
inputs and outputs.
• Put the values on input and output flows.
(i.e.) to measure costs and benefits.
Note*: the units should be same.
10. STEP 4: Compare these cost and benefit.
• Comparison between cost incurred and benefit derived from the project.
(i.e.) TOTAL COST – TOTAL BENEFIT = NET BENEFIT.
Note*: if net benefit is positive then cost benefit is positive and vice versa..
11. DEMERITS
1. The government is
not completely aware
of all the cost and
benefits associated
with the program.
2. This approach does
not clearly states that
who should bear the
population control
cost
MERITS
1. The CBC analysis may
be applicable for both
the new as well as old
projects.
2. It is based on accepted
social principle that is
on individual
preferences.
3. This method also
encourages the
development for new
techniques for the
valuation of social
benefits.
12. CONCLUSION
• Performing a CBA is critical to the continuation of a development project.
• Superficial attention to its development may result in erroneous
conclusions which will lead a company down a path to disaster.
• It is important that both costs and benefits be thoroughly defined.
