This presentation provides an overview of social cost benefit analysis (SCBA). It begins by distinguishing SCBA from commercial cost benefit analysis, noting that SCBA takes a wider view to consider a project's full social impacts. It then defines SCBA as evaluating a project from the viewpoint of society as a whole by considering both its positive and negative social effects. The document outlines the objectives and significance of SCBA compared to CBA. It also describes the UNIDO and L-M approaches to conducting SCBA and provides examples of determining shadow prices for inputs, outputs, externalities, labor and capital.
The document discusses social cost benefit analysis (SCBA), which evaluates projects from a societal perspective rather than a private perspective. SCBA accounts for indirect impacts like externalities, taxes/subsidies, savings, redistribution, and merit goods. It describes the UNIDO and L&M approaches to SCBA. The UNIDO approach involves 5 stages: 1) financial analysis, 2) economic prices, 3) income distribution impacts, 4) savings impacts, and 5) merit/demerit goods adjustments. It also discusses shadow pricing methodology and considers social discount rates.
A social cost benefit analysis systematically evaluates all impacts of development projects, including financial, societal, environmental, health, market, and legal effects. It assigns monetary values to quantify these heterogeneous effects to allow uniform comparison of costs and benefits. This enables decision-makers to assess the net social welfare impact of different project alternatives and understand who bears costs and benefits. The analysis identifies direct, indirect, and external costs and benefits to provide information for well-informed decisions that account for risks and uncertainties.
This document provides an overview of social cost benefit analysis (SCBA). It discusses that SCBA is a methodology used to evaluate investment projects and aid in resource allocation. The document outlines two main approaches to SCBA - the UNIDO approach and L-M approach. The UNIDO approach examines project desirability from financial profitability, savings/consumption, income distribution, and merit/demerit goods production. It involves calculating financial profitability, net economic benefits, and making adjustments. The L-M approach differs in using uncommitted social income as the numeraire and measuring costs/benefits in border prices.
Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is used to evaluate the costs and benefits of projects to determine if they increase social welfare. CBA totals the equivalent money value of quantified tangible and intangible costs and benefits to assess if a project is worthwhile. The main stages of CBA are to calculate all social costs and benefits, conduct sensitivity analysis on uncertain values, discount future costs and benefits to present value, compare costs and benefits to determine the net social return, and select projects with the highest net returns when funds are limited. CBA is commonly used to evaluate large public infrastructure projects but can also be applied to health, environmental and other social programs.
Social Cost Benefit Analysis - SCBA - Seminar by Mohan Kumar GMohan Kumar G
This document provides an overview of social cost-benefit analysis (SCBA). It defines SCBA as a tool to evaluate projects based on their current and future social and economic impacts. The document outlines the key components of an SCBA, including identifying social costs and benefits, using shadow pricing to value hard-to-measure impacts, ranking projects, and distinguishing SCBA from traditional cost-benefit analysis. It also summarizes two common approaches to conducting SCBAs - the UNIDO and Little-Mirrlees approaches. The overall purpose of the document is to explain the objectives, methodology and importance of social cost-benefit analysis for project evaluation.

Social cost benefit analysis (SCBA) differs from commercial or financial analysis as it adopts a social perspective. SCBA considers both the positive social benefits and negative social costs that a project may have on society. The purpose of SCBA is to assess the economic efficiency of a project and determine whether its implementation will provide benefits to society that outweigh the costs. It also helps select between alternative options by considering how each may impact society.
This document discusses social cost benefit analysis (SCBA) and the UNIDO approach to SCBA. It is divided into several sections that cover: the rationale for SCBA including market imperfections, externalities, and taxes/subsidies; the UNIDO approach and its 5 stages; calculating net benefits using shadow pricing and choosing a numeraire; the concept of tradable goods; sources of shadow prices; and treatment of taxes in the analysis. The overall document provides an overview of how to conduct SCBA according to the UNIDO methodology.
Social cost-benefit analysis (SCBA) evaluates the social impact and merits of projects and policies by calculating their total costs and benefits. SCBA assesses factors like how many people will use and benefit from a new bridge, whether its toll costs will reduce traffic, and if the overall benefits exceed the costs. It is important for governments to use SCBA rather than just considering profitability, as they must account for market failures and impacts on employment, income distribution, and the environment. SCBA helps governments approve projects that provide widespread and sustainable economic and social benefits.
The document discusses the presentation topics of economic and social benefits. It will be presented by a group consisting of 4 members. The presentation will cover the economic benefits, how to measure economic benefits, social benefits, and the importance of social benefits. Economic benefits are then defined and examples are provided such as profit, jobs, and GDP growth. Social benefits are defined as private benefits plus external benefits. The importance of analyzing both economic and social costs and benefits for decision making is also discussed.
This document discusses costs and benefits from individual and social perspectives. It defines key concepts like marginal costs, total costs, opportunity costs, and externalities. It explains how individuals and businesses can maximize net benefits and profits by producing up to the point where marginal benefits/revenues equal marginal costs. The document also discusses how externalities can cause divergence between private and social costs/benefits. It concludes that government policies aim to maximize social welfare by taxing negative externalities and subsidizing positive externalities.
This document discusses social cost benefit analysis (SCBA), which is a methodology used to evaluate investment projects from the perspective of their overall impact on society and the economy. It can be applied to both public and private investments. The objectives of SCBA include determining the economic benefits and costs of a project, as well as its impacts on savings, income distribution, and other social goals. Advantages include identifying projects that maximize social welfare, while disadvantages include difficulties in quantifying all social costs and benefits. The key steps of SCBA involve identifying and projecting costs and benefits over time, converting them to monetary values, discounting future amounts, and performing a net present value analysis along with sensitivity testing.
1. The document discusses social cost benefit analysis (SCBA), which evaluates projects based on their overall impact on society rather than just their private costs and benefits. SCBA considers factors like externalities, taxes/subsidies, impact on savings, income distribution, and social goals.
2. The UNIDO approach to SCBA involves 5 stages - calculating financial profitability at market prices, determining net benefit using shadow prices, adjusting for impact on savings/investment and income distribution, and accounting for external social values. Shadow prices reflect social value and are based on factors like border prices, production costs, and willingness to pay.

The document discusses social cost benefit analysis (SCBA) which evaluates the costs and benefits of a project on society as a whole, rather than just on the commercial entities involved. It outlines the UNIDO approach to SCBA, which involves 5 stages - 1) calculating financial profitability at market prices, 2) obtaining net benefit using shadow prices to account for market imperfections, 3) adjusting for impacts on savings and investment, 4) adjusting for impacts on income distribution, and 5) adjusting for impacts on merit goods. Shadow pricing assigns social values to inputs and outputs and accounts for factors like externalities not captured by market prices.
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.
This document discusses different techniques for calculating shadow prices used in cost-benefit analysis for projects and policies. Shadow pricing is important for conducting social cost-benefit analysis and accounts for market distortions. The techniques discussed are UNIDO's 5 stage approach, the OECD (Little and Mirrless) approach, and the World Bank model. All three approaches involve classifying project inputs and outputs as traded, non-traded, or labor and calculating shadow prices based on international prices, marginal prices, or wage rates.
Social Cost Benefit Analysis (SCBA) evaluates whether a proposed project will benefit or cost society. It considers factors like employment, income distribution, savings and investment, externalities, and taxes. The UNIDO approach is a 5-stage methodology for conducting SCBA, analyzing financial profitability, economic efficiency, impact on savings and income distribution, and the difference between social and economic values. Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best alternative forgone. Capital structure refers to how a firm finances its operations through various sources of funds like debt and equity.
The document discusses social cost-benefit analysis (SCBA), which is used to evaluate the economic impact of projects on a national level. SCBA measures impacts such as foreign exchange earnings, taxation revenue, employment, and income distribution. It considers effects from the perspective of the financial analysis, economic analysis, and distributional analysis. The rationale for SCBA includes market imperfections, externalities, taxes/subsidies, concern for savings and redistribution, and merit wants. The document outlines approaches to SCBA, including shadow pricing of inputs/outputs, and discusses factors such as tradability, consumers' willingness to pay, and production costs.
This document discusses economic analysis and its differences from financial analysis. Economic analysis focuses on social costs and benefits, while financial analysis focuses on monetary costs and benefits. There are several sources of discrepancies between the two types of analysis, including market imperfections, externalities, taxes/subsidies, concern for savings vs consumption, and income redistribution. The document then describes two approaches to economic analysis - the UNIDO approach and the Little-Mirrlees approach. The UNIDO approach involves 5 stages including calculating financial feasibility, determining net benefits using economic prices, and adjustments for savings, income redistribution, and merit/demerit goods.
Project evaluation and cost benefit analysisMAHONDO JAMES
This document outlines project evaluation and cost-benefit analysis. It discusses:
1. The stages of project evaluation including review, appraisal, recommendation, and evaluation.
2. Methods of evaluation including description, estimation, evaluation, and formulation.
3. Cost-benefit analysis and how it helps decision makers maximize benefits-costs.
4. Criteria for evaluation including net present value, internal rate of return, benefit-cost ratio.
5. How the social rate of discount is used to evaluate projects and allocate resources over time.
This document provides an overview of sensitivity analysis as part of cost-benefit analysis for justice policies. Sensitivity analysis examines how sensitive the results of a cost-benefit analysis are to changes in underlying assumptions and parameters. The document discusses deterministic sensitivity analysis techniques like partial sensitivity analysis, which varies inputs one at a time, and scenario analysis, which defines best and worst case scenarios. It also discusses probabilistic sensitivity analysis using Monte Carlo simulation. The goal of sensitivity analysis is to assess the robustness of cost-benefit analysis results to changes in assumptions.
1. The document describes the methodology used for a study on cost-benefit analysis. It outlines the theoretical framework, study area, sampling procedure, data collection, and methods of data analysis.
2. Cost-benefit analysis compares the total expected costs of a project or decision to the total expected benefits to see if benefits outweigh costs. It is a key tool for project evaluation and investment decisions.
3. The study will use cost-benefit analysis methods like benefit-cost ratio, net present value, and internal rate of return to evaluate the costs and benefits of fish farms in Akure, Nigeria.
The document provides an overview of credit ratings and the credit rating agencies in India. It discusses that credit rating agencies provide objective analyses and independent assessments of companies and countries to evaluate their creditworthiness for investors. The major credit rating agencies in India are CRISIL, ICRA, CARE, and Fitch. CRISIL and ICRA are the largest and oldest credit rating agencies established in 1987 and 1991 respectively. The document also outlines the typical credit rating scales used by the agencies to communicate their credit risk assessments.

Factoring allows companies to convert their unpaid invoices into immediate cash flow. This provides operating capital for daily expenses and growth. Factoring is beneficial for new businesses and those needing quick access to funds. However, factoring comes at a higher cost than loans, charging interest rates from 1-4% of invoices plus additional fees. Over-reliance on factoring can harm customer relations and business management. Factoring first began in India in 1991 and is growing as a source of short-term financing, but adoption has been limited by bank reluctance and high transaction costs.
Credit rating is an analysis of the credit risks associated with a financial instrument or a financial entity. It is a rating given to a particular entity based on the credentials and the extent to which the financial statements of the entity are sound, in terms of borrowing and lending that has been done in the past.
Factoring is the sale of accounts receivable (book debts) by a firm to a financial institution called a factor. The factor provides upfront cash payment for the receivables, usually 80%, and assumes responsibility for collecting payment from customers and managing credit risk. Factoring provides firms with working capital and credit protection. It involves three main parties - the client firm, its customers, and the financial institution factor. Factoring has grown in importance globally as a source of trade financing and working capital for businesses.

Art is a creative expression that stimulates the senses or imagination according to Felicity Hampel. Picasso believed that every child is an artist but growing up can stop that creativity. Aristotle defined art as anything requiring a maker and not being able to create itself.
The Usefulness of Financial Ratios in Discriminating Between Healthy and Dist...Nerma Saracevic
This document summarizes research analyzing the usefulness of various financial ratios in distinguishing between healthy and distressed companies that are clients of an Islamic bank in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The research analyzed ratios in five categories: liquidity, leverage, activity, efficiency, and profitability. The results found that profitability ratios and activity ratios were most important, with healthy companies exhibiting higher values. Liquidity and leverage ratios were generally not statistically significant. The researchers conclude key ratios include profit margins, returns on assets and equity, and activity turnover ratios. Future work is needed to develop a multi-factor distress prediction model for Islamic banks.

The document discusses debt sustainability analysis (DSA) and its practice in the Turkish Treasury. DSA aims to estimate future debt levels and test debt sustainability under adverse scenarios. The Turkish Treasury uses several models for DSA, including the conventional accounting approach (CAA), debt indicators module (DIM), and Turkish debt simulation model (TDSM). The TDSM is a stochastic model that generates forward-looking scenarios and assesses tail risks, providing a more robust analysis than CAA. Results are reported regularly to management and published to promote transparency.
This document summarizes a statistics project analyzing the impact of oil price fluctuations on consumer price index (CPI) in Kenya. The project used time series and linear modeling to analyze the relationship between CPI and prices of diesel and petrol. It found a strong positive correlation between CPI and oil prices. Forecasting models predicted increasing trends in CPI and oil prices over the next 6 months. The study concluded CPI and local oil prices are directly related and both showed uptrends throughout the analysis period.
This document provides an analysis of key financial metrics and performance measurements of Western Union money transfer services from 2009-2013. Ratios such as gross profit margin, net profit margin, ROCE, ROA, and ROI are calculated and declines in comparative performance are found, particularly in profit margins. The prospects of the company in 2013 are assessed as average based on weaknesses identified in areas like profitability. Limitations of the analysis are also noted. Recommendations for improving performance include reducing costs, increasing repeat customers, and more efficiently deploying capital and promotional spending.

IRJET- Two Stage DEA Method for Performance Evaluation of General Insurance C...IRJET Journal
1) The document analyzes the performance of 14 general insurance companies in Malaysia from 2011-2015 using a two-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) method.
2) The two-stage DEA method divides the insurance production process into two sub-processes: premium acquisition and investment profit generation.
3) The analysis finds that Prudential Assurance Malaysia Berhad showed the best overall performance with a perfect efficiency score, while some other companies like RHB Insurance Berhad performed less efficiently.
The document discusses present worth analysis and evaluating mutually exclusive project alternatives. It provides examples of calculating net present worth (NPW) to evaluate single projects and compare alternatives. The key points are:
1. Present worth analysis uses discounted cash flow techniques to calculate the net present value (NPW) of projects by discounting cash inflows and outflows.
2. Projects with a positive NPW that exceeds the minimum acceptable rate of return should be accepted.
3. Mutually exclusive alternatives must be compared over an equal time period using NPW.
4. The analysis period may differ from project lifetimes, requiring adjustments like estimating salvage value.
1. The document provides financial statements and other information for D'Leon Corporation for the years 2001 and 2002.
2. In 2002, D'Leon expanded its operations which led to increased sales but negative net income, negative net cash flow, and negative economic value added.
3. To finance the expansion, D'Leon took on additional long-term debt, reducing its financial flexibility, but still experienced a decline in cash. The expansion does not appear to have been financially beneficial based on the information provided.

The DSP Dynamic Asset Allocation Fund (DAAF) is an open-ended dynamic asset allocation fund that dynamically manages allocation between equity and debt. The fund's asset allocation model determines core equity allocation based on equity market valuations and technical indicators, and can adjust the equity allocation between 20-90%. The fund aims to capitalize on market upswings by increasing equity allocation while providing downside protection by decreasing allocation during downturns. Currently the fund holds a conservative 40% equity allocation.
DSP Dynamic Asset Allocation Fund PresentationDSP Mutual Fund
The DSP Dynamic Asset Allocation Fund (DAAF) dynamically manages allocation between equity and debt based on an internal model that assesses equity market attractiveness using factors like market valuations and technical indicators. The fund has navigated market cycles since 2020 with lower volatility by holding a conservative equity allocation of 40% currently. While this approach has led to underperformance in bull markets, it has reduced drawdowns and volatility for investors.
The document outlines the agenda and overview for the Winter 2010 Stock Analyst Program.

Marginal Efficiency Of Investment(Mei) Revised Feb 2011Gary Crosbie
This document provides an updated risk-adjusted analysis of different investment styles in bull and bear markets through 2010. The main findings are:
1) Mid caps provided the highest risk-adjusted returns (Marginal Efficiency of Investment or MEI) overall and during recessions, followed closely by mega caps.
2) Monte Carlo simulations showed a 90% probability that a 100% allocation to mid caps would yield an 11.97% return with a 5.7% standard deviation, the highest combination of returns and lowest risk.
3) While international investments showed strong past growth, more data is needed due to higher volatility and smaller sample size to evaluate sustainability. A 5-15% weighting is recommended depending on

Introduction
Occupy Wall Street (OWS ) – the 17 Sept 2011 event
OWS slogan : “99% vs 1 %”
- the wealthiest 1% is perceived to be the beneficiary
of a system ingrained in capitalism , laissez faire
and market reforms
Globalization and Market reforms - a means of
ensuring not only growth and efficiency, but also
equity for the countries that join in the global system
(World Bank, 1999).
3. GRF DAVOS 2012
Globalization and Market
Reforms
Proponents of globalization : “market mechanism will
ensure that the most economically efficient projects are
selected and negative distributional consequences can
be off set by lump sum taxes and transfers.”
Financial liberalization, part of the globalization process,
advocates liberalization of the country’s banking sector
to promote efficient investments
But this promise of prosperity for all with free markets
have not materialized. (Mc Michael 2008, Stiglitz, 2001,
The Economist, 2011)
4. GRF DAVOS 2012
Globalization and Economic Crises
Recent economic crises (EAFC and the global
financial crisis) highlight the weaknesses of
globalization: instability and inequality (Stiglitz, 2010)
An IMF database that tracks financial crises over the
last 30 years revealed – 124 crises
Factors that contributed to the crises- financial
liberalization and increased in global capital flows
Systemic risks and contagion have become common
terms
5. Some Statistics on Inequality
Inequality among countries has increased too.
According to Bende- Nabende (2002):
1/5 of the world’s people living in the highest-
income countries had:
86% of world’s GDP; bottom 1/5 just 1%
82% of export market; bottom 1/5 just 1%
68% of FDI ; bottom 1/5 just 1%

An Exploratory Study Using Social
Cost Benefit Analysis (SCBA)
This paper employs SCBA to investigate whether
deregulation is indeed welfare enhancing for the
case of Malaysia.
Method: To conduct an ex-post evaluation of loans
allocated by the banking sector for two time period.
(Malaysia embarked on financial liberalization in
1978; considered fully liberalized in Feb 1991.)
Objective: To ascertain whether liberalization of the
Malaysian banking sector resulted in efficient use of
resources; increased social profits (net economic
benefits).
7. GRF DAVOS 2012
Social Cost Benefit Analysis
(SCBA)
A tool of welfare economics
SCBA differs from the financial analysis tools
(like DCF) and also BCA; as SCBA adopts a
social perspective (Brent, 2001)
- effects on all individuals in the society are
included
- distributional effects are included
- market prices are not always good indicator
Social price/shadow price/accounting price is
used instead
8. GRF DAVOS 2012
Little & Mirrlees’s SCBA
Methodology
Accepts that the market prices can be modified
using shadow prices
Shadow price is a measure of the cost and
benefit of a good in terms of foreign exchange to
the national government.
Little & Mirrlees’s methodology can be under
taken only if country parameters for shadow
pricing have been undertaken e.g for Malaysia:
- Veitch (1984), National Parameters for Project Appraisal
- Tan (1994), Shadow Prices for Malaysia ..
9. GRF DAVOS 2012
Methodology
Financial variables are the starting point for analysis
Adjustments are made to the financial variables to
reflect the economic worth of a firm
Derive the stream of benefits (A)
Calculate the stream of capital costs (B)
Net benefits = (A - B)
Discount these net benefits by the economic
discount rate and compare it to the initial capital costs
to get the present social value (PSV)
10. GRF DAVOS 2012
PSV - Comparing Net Benefits
and Capital Costs
PSV = (-APPI x C ) +
C = initial capital cost
NBn = net benefits in year n
i = accounting rate of interest / economic discount rate
n = number of years used in the discounting period
APPI = accounting price of private investment
11. GRF DAVOS 2012
Data and Actual Computation
Data from 117 companies were obtained and keyed
into Excel worksheets for various computations to
obtain present social value (PSV):
Total loans
Revenue
Profit before tax
Total fixed assets
Total current liabilities
Depreciation allowance
Corporate tax
Interest payment
12. GRF DAVOS 2012
Stratification of PSV For
Analysis
The companies’ PSV is stratified :
I. Companies that obtained substantial
loans in the pre-liberalization period
II. Companies that obtained substantial
loans in the post-liberalization period
III. Companies that obtained substantial
loans in both the pre and post-
liberalization periods
13. GRF DAVOS 2012
Rationale for Stratification
Strata I and II are used to compare if there
exists any difference in the PSV between the
two time periods (pre and post).
Strata III eliminates the factor of “different
management” in the comparison of the pre
and post liberalization PSV. (as in the
comparison of 1 and II)
Strata III serves somewhat as a ‘control’.

Concluding Remarks
SCBA has been used to investigate the impact of
market reforms (from the welfare perspective).
Results implied that the liberalization of the Malaysian
banking sector did not bring about increased net
economic benefits for the period studied.
The findings are in line with what we have observed
from recent financial crises.
Worthwhile adopting SCBA to allocate resources.
to lead to more equity and less systemic risks.
