Federal Cost-Benefit Analysis per OMB Circular A-94

★ 6.7 · financial-analysis

federal-bca is a Claude Code skill that serves as a structured knowledge base covering OMB Circular A-94 (revised November 9, 2023) guidelines for federal benefit-cost and cost-effectiveness analysis. Across six chapters it addresses BCA and CEA principles, benefit and cost measurement (baseline construction, opportunity cost, transfers), discount-rate policy for real and nominal rates and NPV, uncertainty and sensitivity analysis, distributional incidence by population group, and OMB-grade reporting for program and legislative decisions. Supporting files — glossary.md, patterns.md, and cheatsheet.md — provide terminology, implementation patterns, and decision cheatsheets. The skill targets analysts designing or reviewing federal BCAs submitted under A-11 or A-19, and explicitly does not cover Army CEAC process templates or agency-specific statutory BCA regimes.
