For engineering students and professionals in the Philippines, Engineering Economy 3rd Edition by Matias Arreola

The only drawback is that the 3rd edition may lack modern case studies on renewable energy projects or software-as-a-service (SaaS) models, but the underlying math remains perfect.

Wait, I should consider using academic search engines or platforms like ResearchGate where authors upload their work sometimes. Let me try searching there. Hmm, maybe there's a paper or a preview there. Or perhaps the book is a compilation of various sources, and individual chapters are available online. However, the entire book might not be free.

To help students review and reinforce their understanding of the material, here are some study guide questions and review problems:

Techniques for comparing alternatives to maximize profit and minimize costs.

The modern engineer is no longer confined to the technical aspects of design and construction; they are increasingly required to act as decision-makers who must justify projects based on economic efficiency. The discipline of Engineering Economy provides the mathematical and conceptual tools necessary to evaluate the financial justification of engineering projects.
