| Abstract | Article history: Received March 19, 2012 Received in Revised form April, 25, 2012 Accepted 29 May 2012 Available online June 2 2012 Cash flow analysis is one of the most popular methods for investigating the outcome of an economical project. The costs and benefits of a construction project are often involved with uncertainty and it is not possible to find a precise value for a particular project. In this paper, we present a simple method to calculate the net present value of a cash flow when both costs and benefits are given as triangular numbers. The proposed model of this paper uses Delphi method to figure out the fair values of all costs and revenues and then using fizzy programming techniques, it calculates the fuzzy net present value. The implementation of the proposed model is demonstrated using a simple example. © 2012 Growing Science Ltd. All rights reserved. |
