Economic Investment Appraisal -- Project Topics 2004, Term 2
Submit a two-page proposal -- who? what? importance? how? data? -- by Friday May 14. Proposal not assessed.
Note: the term project is an exercise -- an opportunity for you to demonstrate an ability to apply some (but not all) of the tools from class; the final numbers are not as important as how you derive them. (The real world is not as cut-and-dried as classroom exercises.)
Try to get firm figures for at least one side of the costs and benefits; then use this as a benchmark to argue whether the project is NPV-positive or -negative from a CBA perspective.
