dc.descriptionThis paper explains the life satisfaction approach to economic analysis and illustrates it with an example of flooding from Iloilo, Philippines. Recommendations are offered for application of the technique in the economic analysis of investment projects. The approach estimates Hicksian compensating variation using self-reported subjective well-being to calculate the marginal rate of substitution of income for nonmarket amenities or services.
