B/C Report

The Benefit-Cost report compares the alternatives across the top of the table with the alternatives listed in the left-hand vertical axis of the table.   This report may be used to compare one alternative to another and determine which alternative is the most cost-beneficial to implement.   The table is constructed as an incremental Benefit-Cost table.   The first row shows the Benefit-Cost of each alternative with respect to the lowest cost alternative, usually presumed to be the no-nothing or null alternative.   The combination with the best incremental B/C ratio is highlighted in a green color and the best alternative title is printed just below the table.
