Journal of Benefit-Cost Analysis
JBCA is the only journal devoted exclusively to benefit-cost analysis, the leading evidence-based analytical method for determining if the consequences of specific public actions make society better off overall.
"Benefit-cost analysis is crucially important in determining the contribution of economics to policy decisions. The Journal of Benefit-Cost Analysis, as the outstanding forum for refinement of benefit-cost analysis, is key in promoting its further development. It is a top journal. It should be read by every economist."
- George S. Tolley, Professor Emeritus of Economics, University of Chicago
