from Jules Dupuit, a French engineer in the article,

which was written in 1848. and still retains its relevance. British economist Alfred Marshall has formulated some of the formal concepts that formed the basis for CBA. But the practical development of CBA occurred as a result of the US Federal Act on Navigation in 1936 .. According to this law, the US Army Corps of Engineers had to carry out projects to improve the system of waterway in which the aggregate project benefits exceed its costs. Thus, the Corps of Engineers had create systematic methods for measuring benefits and costs. The engineers have done it without the help of economists. Only 20 years later, in the late 1950s, economists have tried to present a series of precise, consistent methods for measuring benefits and costs and identify promising projects.
