Cost-benefit analysis compares two or more systems, states, services, products, or things to determine the best viable choice by evaluating their financial and non-financial costs and benefits.

These comparisons can be extended to products, services, systems, etc. While cost-benefit analysis is indeed a valuable tool for decision-making, it focuses specifically on comparing the monetary costs and benefits of alternatives.
