Abstract
Abstract Cost-benefit analysis is a benefit measurement method that compares the cost required to realize the product, service or result with the benefits to be obtained. It allows future earnings to be calculated with the present value of money and different projects can be compared. In this study, the uncertainties of decision maker inputs were reflected in a more realistic way by dealing with the cost-benefit analysis under decomposed fuzzy sets. The contribution of this study to the literature are the decomposed fuzzy linguistic term scale, which is proposed for the first time, and the new equations and formulations developed for cost-benefit analysis under fuzziness. This study also contributes to the successful applicability of engineering economics issues and financial analysis methods under fuzziness.

期刊介绍:
The Engineering Economist is a refereed journal published jointly by the Engineering Economy Division of the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) and the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE). The journal publishes articles, case studies, surveys, and book and software reviews that represent original research, current practice, and teaching involving problems of capital investment.
The journal seeks submissions in a number of areas, including, but not limited to: capital investment analysis, financial risk management, cost estimation and accounting, cost of capital, design economics, economic decision analysis, engineering economy education, research and development, and the analysis of public policy when it is relevant to the economic investment decisions made by engineers and technology managers.
