Engineering Economic Analysis: CD-ROM included containing Interactive Tutorials, ExcelRG Spreadsheets & Interest Tables

By Jerome P. Lavelle, Donald G. Newnan, Ted G. Eschenbach

Book Overview

The ideal text for undergraduate engineering economy courses--now with new cases. Since it was first published in 1976, this text has been the market-leading book for the Engineering Economic Analysis course. It has always been characterized by: A focus on practical applications * One way to encourage students to read the book, and to remember and apply what they have learned in this course, is to make it interesting. And there is no better way to do that than to infuse the book with real-world examples, problems, and vignettes. Accessibility * Most students don't have expertise in accounting or finance. This book takes the time to explain concepts carefully while helping students apply them to engineering situations. Superior support packages for students and instructors * To make this course easier to understand, learn, and teach, Oxford University Press offers the best support package available in this market.

Customer Reviews

great CD!

The CD is great! It is full of songs that are amusing and the lyrics teach me a lot.

Hearsay

I'm taking this class right now. My prof said that this text is even better than the one he (my prof) wrote. He also said there's an interesting backstory to this text: apparently Newnan wrote the book and no one would publish it, so he published it himself. I'll write my own review at the end of the semester.

Clear, easy

Very clear explanations. Found it really easy to understand and apply to my own business. You could breeze through this book in a week by spending a few hours on it a day.

Change of Pace

This book explores a whole different side of chemical engineering. Useful as a reference but some of the problems are extremely difficult. Overall good book

An excellent resource.

This is a well written text on the subject with the subject matter well presented. Another feature is the CD. Excellent spreadsheets.
