The Engineering Economist is a journal that focuses on data-driven engineering economic models to support capital investment decisions in uncertain economic conditions. The latest issue features articles on various topics. The first article introduces a project valuation framework that incorporates Economic Value Added (EVA) and Market Value Added (MVA) analysis into a binomial tree option pricing model. The second article merges earlier work on valuation and growth expectations with the Average Internal Rate of Return (AIRR) models, simplifying calculations for expected competitive advantage and growth rates. The third article utilizes real options analysis to assess uncertainty in the copper concentrate trading business. The journal publishes original research, case studies, surveys, and reviews related to capital investment problems. [Extracted from the article]
