Principles of Engineering Economic Analysis

This text is an unbound, binder-ready edition.

Engineers need to "sell" engineering projects and products to managers, executives, and customerseconomically as well as technologically, environmentally, aesthetically, and so on. Principles of Engineering Economic Analysis, 6e teaches engineers to properly and methodically evaluate their work on an economic basis, and to convey it effectively to those who have the power to say "yea" or "nay."

The 6th edition is updated and expanded to be comprehensive and flexible - it includes all standard topics plus stronger coverage of more advanced analysis techniques than other books(e.g., risk analysis, sensitivity analysis, cost estimating, public sector economics, capital budgeting, etc.), with the most thorough integration and guidance for spreadsheet use. The text provides a unified treatment of economic analysis principles and techniques from a cash flow perspective, a proven classroom approach that is very successful in practice.

Chapter-opening stories about well-known companies, engineering and personal finance examples throughout the text, and external web resources help motivate students. FE-Like problems at the end of each chapter give students practice with the kinds of problems they'll encounter on the FE exam.

The 6^th edition provides students and instructors the latest tax information, and up-to-date company and industry information in the chapter opening stories, reflecting changes resulting from the recent tumult in the economy, so that students can work with the most current and relevant information.

The 6^th edition also highlights opportunities for instructors and students to benefit from the teaching and learning resources available in theWileyPLUS course (instructors may choose to adopt this text with WileyPLUS), including:

• Algorithmic homework problems that provide: instant feedback to students, link-to-text where students may review if they're having trouble, and Tutorial and Video Solution help. All Tutorial help is available at the instructor's discretion.
• 96 Worked Problem Videos, demonstrating how to solve problems, both algebraically and with Excel.
