Appropriate
for a number of courses in engineering technology, engineering, economics, and business
management at all levels, from undergraduate through the graduate level. This book
provides a practical approach to making integrated financial decisions in contemporary
organizations. While mathematics is used throughout, the focus of this text is the application
of the math techniques in real-world settings.
"Examples, Questions, Problems, and Discussion Cases balance quantitative analysis, team
based decisions, technical factors, and qualitative information."
Are you
looking for an Engineering Economics text that emphasizes applications rather than math
theory?
Presents
the details and interrelationships of Traditional Engineering Economy Techniques
(65% of book); basic organizational financial statements and accounting concepts
(20% of book); and contemporary and team approaches to cost reduction, Continuous
Profit Improvement, Quality Economics, Measuring Financial Results, and Total Financial
Management (15% of book).
Covers applied
engineering economics topics and decision making techniques with examples. Time value
of money techniques are explained using diagrams, equations, tables, and software
applications. Examples cover engineering design, process engineering, construction,
manufacturing, software, non-manufacturing and service industries, and personal
applications.
Provides
a basis for financial and technical decision making grounded in an understanding of
organizational financial concepts and engineering economy principles, financial
statements, accounting and cash flow concepts. These are presented using a simple
accounting equation and time value of money approach that is easily understood by
non-financial students, managers, and technical personnel.
Presents current
techniques such as measuring financial results, continuously improving profits and
reducing costs, quality economics, and Total Financial Management that are used in making
contemporary financial decisions by teams of engineers, managers, technicians,
operating, and financial personnel.
Provides
practical applications of the interrelationships among engineering economy techniques,
continuous improvement of costs and profits, and basic financial/accounting concepts.
Provides applications
of these techniques that individuals can use in making personal financial decisions.
Among the topics discussed and analyzed are loans, investments, mortgages, and others.
Each
chapter analyzes real-life examples and situations. By providing models for
on-the-job financial improvements and decisions, the book is a useful tool for students as
well as working engineers and managers.
Incorporates
a number of pedagogical aids into the text. Among these are key terms and
definitions; key learning concepts; an introduction and summary in each
