ATTENTION! NEW PROBLEMS!!
New, previously unpublished problems and solutions available, specifically developed for this text!
Instructors, if you are in the need for new and unused problems for your Engineering Economy course, take advantage of this free offer. The problems and solutions are presented by book chapter for the 6th edition and are provided electronically in Word format. They may be used directly on tests and quizzes, for homework, or for practice work, as they have not been published elsewhere. They are available directly from McGraw-Hill only and are not available on the text’s website.
If you would like a copy, please contact your McGraw-Hill Sales Representative. If you do not know who your Sales Rep is, use our Rep Locator. For tracking purposes, you will be asked to provide your name, e-mail address and university, as well as the name and number of the course you are teaching. The Sales Rep will verify current adoption status.
Current adoption of any Blank/Tarquin text is required. However, these problems are keyed to Engineering Economy, 6th edition. If you have adopted the Basics of Engineering Economy text, see its website for a similar offer.
Engineering Economy, 6th edition , provides undergraduate students and practicing professionals with a solid preparation in the financial understanding of engineering problems and projects, as well as the techniques needed for evaluating and making sound economic decisions. Information on cost estimation, depreciation, and taxes has been updated to conform to new tax laws and a majority of the end-of-chapter problems are revised or new to this edition.
Distinguishing pedagogical characteristics of this market-leading text include its easy-to-read writing style, chapter objectives, worked examples, integrated spreadsheets, case studies, Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam questions, and numerous end-of-chapter problems. Graphical cross-referencing is indicated so users are able to locate additional material on any one subject in the text. Quick-solve (Q-Solv) and Excel-solve (E-Solve) icons found in the text indicate the difficulty of a problem, example, or spreadsheet.
While the chapters are progressive, over three-quarters can stand alone, allowing instructors flexibility for meeting course needs. A complete Online Learning Center (OLC) offers supplemental practice problems, spreadsheet exercises, review questions for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam, and more!
To obtain an instructor login for this Online Learning Center, ask your local sales representative.
