Cash Flow Analysis for Engineers I is an introduction to engineering economics focusing on cash flow analysis.

This online course begins with a discussion of simple and compound interest and how the formulas for computing them are developed.  From this, the cash flow diagram and cash flow tables are introduced for modeling cash flows.  Starting with the formula for computing future value, a set of cash flow manipulation formulas are then developed, followed by several examples.
