Cost benefit analysis is a systematic approach for evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of alternatives by comparing the total expected costs against the total expected benefits of a decision, project, or policy. It's used by business managers, government policymakers, and project managers to determine whether an investment is worthwhile and to compare competing options on a common financial basis. The analysis often involves quantifying both direct and indirect costs and benefits, sometimes over multiple time periods using discounted cash flow techniques.
