内容説明

Engineering Economy, 15e, is ideal for undergraduate, introductory courses in Engineering Economics. It also is a useful reference for engineers interested in reviewing the basic principles of engineering economy. Used by engineering students worldwide, this best-selling text provides a sound understanding of the principles, basic concepts, and methodology of engineering economy. Built upon the rich and time-tested teaching materials of earlier editions, it is extensively revised and updated to reflect current trends and issues, with an emphasis on the economics of engineering design throughout. It provides one of the most complete and up-to-date studies of this vitally important field.
