For that same project the modified benefit cost ratio is

  • A.1.50
  • B.1.67
  • C.0.70
  • D.1.43

Answer: D

Correct answer: 1.43

The modified convention puts the disbenefit into the denominator: \[ \frac{500{,}000}{300{,}000 + 50{,}000} = \frac{500}{350} = 1.43. \] The conventional form gave 1.50 on the same figures, and both exceed one - which illustrates the point that the two agree on the decision while differing on the number.
