In this paper examines the economic assessment of the investment funds in agriculture, sources and toward of public capital to agricultural activities, forestry and fisheries in Uzbekistan. Also, analyzed a profit taken from farm activity and the assessed public investment funds spent to agricultural activity. Factors impact to farm activity benefits have also been studied. The analysis used data from a social survey conducted on 44 farms in terms of distance not far from each other. It was found that investment funds at a rate of 1% (p <.01) plays a statistically significant role in increasing the profitability of farms from production activities. It is scientifically justified to increase the amount of investment funds involved in the activities of farms by 1 unit, which will increase the amount of income from activities by 22.6%. In the case of an increase in the profit received from the production activities of farms, the investment amount is increased by 1 percent (p<.01) statistically important significance was determined. It is scientifically justified to increase the amount of investment funds involved in the activities of farms by 1 unit, which will increase the amount of income from activities by 22.6%. KEYWORDS: profit, investment, investment funds, sources of investment, “robust (consolidation)”, “strengthen”.

The paper analyzes shortcomings of economic impact studies based mainly on input- output models that are often employed in Russia as well as abroad. Using studies about sport events in the USA and Olympic Games that took place during the last 30 years we reveal advantages of the cost-benefit analysis approach in obtaining unbiased assessments of public investments efficiency; the step-by-step method of cost-benefit analysis is presented in the paper as well. We employ the project of Sochi-2014 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Russia to evaluate its efficiency using cost-benefit analysis for five accounts (areas of impact), namely government, households, environment, economic development, and social development, and calculate the net present value of the project taking into account its possible alternatives. In conclusion we suggest several policy directions that would enhance public investment efficiency within the Sochi-2014 Olympics.

This paper reexamines the case for discounting for time in public investment appraisal where long-term or irreversible effects on future generations are involved. It is concluded that—while, in the short-term, considerations of equity reinforce the commonly advocated case for discounting for time—in evaluating long-term or irreversible effects, current discounting procedures require the doubtful assumption of perpetual exponential growth of real income. However, if discounting were abandoned, use of the standard cost—benefit-analysis framework would require the forecasting of shadow prices for all future dates, unless an arbitrary time horizon is adopted. Thus cost—benefit analysis does not appear to be a satisfactory method for evaluating effects on future generations.

Abstract The paper presents possibilities of an economic evaluation of hard coal mines, using Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA). Suggested methodology for CBA applied to the economic evaluation of a mine allows to conduct a complex evaluation of mine’s functionality in connection to Polish conditions. Additionally to financial aspects, significant from the point of view of the mine’s owner, the paper includes social and environmental effects as a result of mining activities. Proposed methodology has undergone tests which used averaged data obtained from two selected hard coal mines located in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin. Presented results confirm the validity of social costs and benefits, and environmental losses resulting from mining operation, which were included in analysis comprehensively evaluating the efficiency of hard coal mines.

Abstract The focus of the paper is the evaluation of the performance of domestic rainwater harvesting (DRWH) systems in multi-family buildings with one- to three-floor elevations by means of a cost–benefit analysis. The rainwater is here used for both indoor and outdoor non-potable water consumption. The study was carried out with reference to different residential building typologies (flat and condominium) in a specific local climate condition (Ancona). The buildings are characterized by different rooftop areas (100–400 m2), building floor elevations (one to three floors) and inhabitant numbers (3–54 persons). Moreover, in order to highlight the role of the tank capacity on the performance of DRWH, its capacity was changed in the range 50–200%. The combinations of all these parameters led to 276 test cases. The technical performance is evaluated by means of the water saving and retention efficiencies. The economical assessment is provided by comparing the costs and the savings due to the replacement of the water supplied with the rainwater. It is found that the payback periods changed in the range 10–35 years for the site-specific variables such as local rainfall and water service tariff. Cost–benefit analysis can help the design of DRWH systems, with particular attention to the sizing of the tank.

ABSTRACTIt  is  a  system  developed  by  free  software  tools  to  support  the  implementation  of  environmental  impact  studies conducted by the National Company for Applied Research Cuba. It facilitates the collection and analysis of data from differ-ent alternatives of a project based on the identification, evaluation and correction of potential environmental impacts. The implementation of the system is supported on the methodology of EIA, Conesa and Resolution 132/2009 "Regulations Pro-cess  Environmental  Impact  Assessment"  of  the  Ministry  of  Science,  Technology  and  Environment  of  Cuba.  It  offers  the possibility to evaluate the alternatives of a project, taking into account several criteria decision and the preferences of the decision maker, by multi PRES II method; one of the criteria used and of great impact was the Cost-Benefit Analysis provid-ing an economic assessment of the project. The results obtained are through reporting, where the elements of each alterna-tive  and  the  assessment  of  the  project  based  on  the  indicators  obtained  during  the  study  are  detailed;  with  the  purpose  of supporting environmental decisions regarding the implementation of the project.RESUMENSe trata de un sistema informático desarrollado mediante herramientas de software libre para apoyar la realiza-ción de los estudios de impacto ambiental llevados a cabo por la Empresa Nacional de Investigaciones Aplica-das de Cuba. Facilita la recopilación y análisis de los datos de las diferentes alternativas de un proyecto a partir de la identificación, evaluación y corrección de los posibles impactos ambientales. La implementación del siste-ma está sustentado sobre la metodología de Evaluación de Impacto Ambiental, Conesa y la Resolución 132/2009 “Reglamento del Proceso de Evaluación de Impacto Ambiental” del Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnolo-gía y Medio Ambiente de Cuba. Ofrece la posibilidad de valorar las alternativas de un proyecto, teniendo en cuenta varios criterios de decisión y las preferencias del decisor, mediante el método multicriterio PRES II; unos de los criterios utilizados y de gran impacto fue el Análisis Costo-Beneficio aportando una valoración económi-ca del proyecto. Los resultados obtenidos se ofrecen a través de la generación de informes, donde se detallan los elementos de cada alternativa y la valoración del proyecto a partir de los indicadores obtenidos a lo largo del estudio; con el propósito de apoyar las decisiones ambientales respecto a la puesta en práctica del proyecto.
