Cost Benefit Analysis Services for NC Organizations

Our methods include contingent valuation, hedonic pricing, and benefit transfer techniques, ensuring that all significant benefits are captured in the analysis.

The discount rate varies depending on the project type, funding source, and risk profile. We typically use the organization’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for private sector projects, government bond rates plus risk premium for public projects, and sector-specific rates for nonprofit organizations. We also conduct sensitivity analyses using multiple discount rates.

Yes, we specialize in analyzing projects with extended timeframes, including infrastructure developments, educational programs, and environmental initiatives. We account for inflation, technological changes, and evolving market conditions while using appropriate discount rates and sensitivity analyses to address uncertainty over time.

We stay current with relevant guidelines from agencies such as OMB, EPA, and various funding organizations. Our analyses follow established standards for government projects, grant applications, and regulatory submissions, ensuring compliance with specific requirements while maintaining analytical rigor and transparency.
