This report looks at some of the methodological considerations in valuing the benefits of broadband. It has a particular focus on these considerations in the context of the planned National Broadband Network (NBN) project and in the context of any social cost benefit analysis of the NBN or other broadband project. While the underlying principles of valuation are transferable to a variety of project settings, here they are discussed primarily with reference to the planned NBN.
