Features: Compared to other disciplines, engineering economics is a relatively young field, especially in our country. Research and application of engineering economics in China began in the late 1970s. However, with the development of the social economy, advancements in science and technology, and increasingly fierce market competition, product homogeneity has become higher and higher, the investment scale of engineering projects has grown larger, and the technologies used have become more complex. All these have increased the difficulty of economic analysis and decision-making for engineering projects and have also enhanced the importance of engineering economics. Based on long-term teaching and research in engineering economics, the authors of this book have absorbed research achievements from both domestic and international fields in this area and compiled this book. It can serve as a teaching material for engineering management majors and related disciplines in colleges and universities, as well as a reference book for practitioners to transform management concepts and broaden their management horizons.
