Abstract

Cost Analysis is that it provides accurate and complete information on the real costs of managing solid waste. It uncovers hidden and overlooked costs and allocates all costs to the specific program for which they are incurred. As a result, managers are able to compare current and proposed services accurately, predict future costs reliably, and evaluate privatization options thoroughly. In short, full-cost analysis allows elected officials and solid waste managers to make informed decisions regarding the types and levels of solid waste services. In addition to the general advantages that come with understanding program costs.
