Book Title: Social Cost Benefit Analysis and Economic Evaluation

by Suzanne Bonner

Book Description: This book provides detailed foundational tools to assess and evaluate the costs and benefits associated with public or private decision making through a cost-benefit analysis (CBA). This book is targeted at students with preliminary foundations in economics. The content and activities have been developed to support learning in ECON2101 Cost Benefit Analysis offered as a course at UQ. This textbook was written prior to the widespread use of generative AI tools. As a result, its content reflects careful human authorship, explicit reasoning, and deliberate pedagogical choices for teaching CBA, offering a transparent and methodologically rigorous learning resource at an appropriate level.
