What is This Technique?

Definition: Cost Benefit Analysis is an important technique for project
appraisal: the process of weighing the total expected costs against the total
expected benefits of one or more actions in order to choose the best or most
profitable option. Source:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost-benefit_analysis

This powerful, yet simple tool, can really make your life a lot easier, make
you a more confident decision-maker and contribute a positive impact to the
company's bottom line -
guaranteed.

Where did it Originate and Who Uses it?

This tool was developed in the USA during the 1930s and 1940s with overall
acceptance and wider use in the 1960s. The
first US presidential directive
for Cost Benefit Analysis was issued in 1981 as shown by the following
quote"

"The use of Cost Benefit Analysis at the federal level significantly increased
with the issuance of an
Executive Order in 1981 by President Reagan
declaring that Regulatory Impact Analyses be conducted for major initiatives.

An additional Executive Order was issued by
President Clinton in 1994,
confirming the government’s
commitment to Cost Benefit Analysis and
highlighting the
bipartisan support for Cost Benefit Analysis in federal
regulatory decision-making."

Many other governments around the world have now adopted this approach
when deciding how to spread scarce funds amongst competing projects.
For example: Should funds be expended on:

  • environmental projects or on upgrading school facilities?
  • major catastrophes funding or defense asset replacements?
  • Improving water quality or new government IT systems?
  • Hospital upgrades or disaster planning systems?

Benefit Analysis blueprints.

Many big businesses around the world also use Cost Benefit Analysis to
decide how to allocate funds, how to choose the best investment proposal
and how to choose from competing financial outcomes.

However, the beauty of this technique is that will
work equally well in big
or small businesses
, on simple or complex proposals, in any setting either
for profit or not for profit businesses,
in any country right around the world.
Handy Tip

Did you know that there are certain costs and benefits that should NEVER
find their way
into Cost Benefit Analysis?

Why? Because the final analysis will only provide you with the "best"
solution if you
follow the rules. For instance, you never include the Loan
Repayments in your calculations. This will double count some costs. You
wouldn't want to be embarrassed when you present your proposal and
someone in your audience (either a peer or, worse still, a superior)
alerts
you to your mistake
, would you?

Unless you get this science right you may find that others will not take due
notice of your proposal or your recommendations.
