Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe net benefits (NB) and net savings (NS) methods are part of a family of economic evaluationmeth

3、ods that provide measures of economic performance of an investment over some period of time.Included in this family of evaluation methods are life-cycle cost analysis, benefit-to-cost andsavings-to-investment ratios, internal rates of return, and payback analysis.The NB method calculates the differe

4、nce between discounted benefits and discounted costs as ameasure of the cost effectiveness of a project. The NS method calculates the difference betweenlife-cycle costs as a measure of the cost-effectiveness of a project. The NB and NS methods aresometimes called the net present value method. The NB

5、 and NS methods are used to decide if a projectis cost effective (net benefits greater than zero, or net savings greater than zero), or which size, ordesign, competing for a given purpose is most cost effective (the one with the greatest net benefits, orthe one with the greatest net savings).1.

Significance and Use5.1 The

18、 NB (NS) method provides a measure of the eco-nomic performance of an investment, taking into account allrelevant monetary values associated with that investment overthe investors study period. The NB (NS) measure can beexpressed in either present value or equivalent annual valueterms, taking into a

19、ccount the time value of money.5.2 The NB (NS) method is used to decide if a given projectis cost effective and which size or design for a given purposeis most cost effective when no budget constraint exists.5.3 The NB (NS) method can also be used to determine themost cost effective combination of p

20、rojects for a limitedbudget; that is, the combination of projects having the greatestaggregate NB (NS) and fitting within the budget constraint.5.4 Use the NB method when the focus is on the benefitsrather than project costs.5.5 Use the NS method when the focus in on project savings(that is, reducti

21、ons in project costs).6. Procedures6.1 The recommended steps for applying the NB (NS)method to an investment decision are summarized as follows:6.1.1 Make sure that the NB (NS) method is the appropriateeconomic measure (see Guide E 1185),6.1.2 Identify objectives, alternatives, and constraints,6.1.3

22、 Establish assumptions,6.1.4 Compile data,6.1.5 Convert cash flows to a common time basis (discount-ing),6.1.6 Compute NB (NS)4and compare alternatives, and6.1.7 Make final decision, based on NB (NS) results as wellas consideration of risk and uncertainty, unquantifiable effects,and funding constrai

23、nts (if any).6.2 Since the steps mentioned in 6.1.2-6.1.5 are treated indetail in Practice E 917 and briefly in Practices E 964 andE 1121, they are not discussed in this practice. In calculatingNB (NS), these four steps should be followed exactly asdescribed in Practice E 917. The remainder of this

24、practicefocuses on the computation, analysis, and application of theNB (NS) measure. A comprehensive example of the NBmethod applied to a building economics problem is provided inAppendix X1.7. NB (NS) Computation7.1 Computation of NB for any given project requires theestimation, in dollar terms, of

25、 differences between benefits, anddifferences between costs, for that project relative to a mutuallyexclusive alternative. Computation of NS for any given projectrequires the estimation, in dollar terms, of the differencebetween life-cycle costs for the project relative to a mutuallyexclusive altern

26、ative. The mutually exclusive alternative maybe a similar design/system of a different scale, a dissimilardesign/system for the same purpose, or the do nothing case.Denote the alternative under consideration as Ajand themutually exclusive alternative to be used for purposes ofcomparison as Ak. Alter

27、native Akis typically the do nothingcase or the project with the lowest first cost, which may or may3Available from ASTM International Headquarters.

Costs can include (but are notlimited to) initial investment, operation and maintenance (in-cluding energy consumption), repair and replacements, and taxliabilities.7.2 Eq 1 is use

38、ent value or annual value terms will be time equivalentvalues (although different in actual dollar values) and willresult in the same investment or design decisions, providedannual values are calculated using Eq 2 for net benefits and Eq4 for net savings.7.7 A simple application of Eq 1 is presented

39、 in Table 1 foran initial investment of $10 000 that yields an uneven yearlycash flow over four years. (Implicitly, the mutually exclusivealternative is the do nothing case.) Assuming a discount rate of15 %, the discounted cash flows yield a PVNB of $1823. (Notethat the sum of net cash flows, $7000,

40、 is a much larger value,since it fails to account for the eroding value of money overtime.) The larger the PVNB for a given project, the moreeconomically attractive it will be, other things being equal.7.8 To find the AVNB that is time equivalent to $1823, useEq 2. The equivalent AVNB is $639.8. Ana

41、lysis of NB (NS) Results and the Decision8.1 Use the results of the NB (NS) computation to rankorder alternatives from highest to lowest NB (NS). Thealternative with the highest NB (NS) is the most cost effective.8.2 In the final investment decision, take into account notonly the numerical values of

42、 NB (NS), but also uncertainty ofinvestment alternatives relative to the risk attitudes of theinvestor, the availability of funding and other cash-flow con-straints, any unquantified effects attributable to the alternatives,and the possibility of noneconomic objectives. (These topicsare discussed in

43、 Section 10 of Practice E 917.)8.2.1 Decision makers typically experience uncertaintyabout the correct values to use in establishing basic assump-tions and in estimating future costs. Guide E 1369 recommendstechniques for treating uncertainty in parameter values in aneconomic evaluation. It also rec

44、ommends techniques for evalu-ating the risk that a project will have a less favorable economicoutcome than what is desired or expected. Practice E 1946establishes a procedure for measuring cost risk for buildingsand building systems, using the Monte Carlo simulationtechnique as described in Guide E

45、1369. Practice E 917 pro-vides direction on how to apply Monte Carlo simulation whenperforming economic evaluations of alternatives designed tomitigate the effects of natural and man-made hazards that occurinfrequently but have significant consequences. Practice E 917contains a comprehensive example

46、 on the application of MonteCarlo simulation in evaluating the merits of alternative riskmitigation strategies for a prototypical data center.8.2.2 Describe any significant effects that remain unquanti-fied. Explain how these effects impact the recommendedalternative. Refer to Practice E 1765 for gu

47、idance on how topresent unquantified effects along with the computed values ofNB (NS) or any other measures of economic performance.9. Applications9.1 The NB (NS) measure indicates that a given project iscost effective if the PVNB (PVNS) is greater than zero. If thePVNB (PVNS) is less than zero, the

48、n the project is not costeffective.9.2 How large an investment to make (that is, what is themost economically efficient scale) is generally answered withNB (NS) analysis. The size or scale of investment is increaseduntil the PVNB (PVNS) is maximized. Typical size or scaleexamples from the building i

49、ndustry include (1) how large aE1074093building to construct, (2) how large a dam to construct, (3) howmuch insulation to put in a house, and (4) how many squarefeet of collector area to install in a solar energy system.9.3 Fig. 1 illustrates graphically how the NB method is usedto choose the economically efficient level of energy conserva-tion in a building (that is, where the PVNB is maximized).Conservation costs, in present value terms, are shown toincrease at an increasing rate as the physical quantity of inputsto conserve energy (Qi) is increased
