A second irony is that today liberals are donning the green eyeshades as they bean-count costs and benefits in the face of staggering moral truths . Governments agreed to promote measures to internalize environmental costs and benefits in the price of goods and services , and to consider shifting the burden of taxation on to unsustainable patterns , including by reducing and eliminating subsidies to environmentally harmful activities . Topics of study included principles of database design , human-computer interfaces , medical terminologies and coding systems , medical decision analysis methods , clinical information systems architectures , telemedicine and methods for measuring costs and benefits in health care systems . The only table in which OIRA provided an indication that not all costs and benefits had been quantified-Table 7-it did not list qualitative costs and benefits under the columns headed " costs " or " benefits , " but under the " other information " column . Notwithstanding these similarities , there may be quite different costs and benefits in adopting a shared services arrangement for any of the parties involved , and these should be identified during the feasibility study . However , the cost and benefits have yet to be broken down by state or network portion . A detailed discussion of the development of estimated costs and benefits follows . And a simple intuition of compound interest and compound discounting shows you that small positive rates used for costs and benefits in the future look very small when valued today .
