Popis: Economic analysis, supported by computer hardware and software, can easily overwhelm a decision maker with data. However, this data can be organized in a readily understandable way using well-designed graphs. Some simple guidelines suggest substantial improvements over available examples from papers and textbooks. Although these graphs and sensitivity analyses are useful in many quantitative problems, the long-range focus of engineering economy and its concomitant uncertainty dramatically increase their value.
