The Institute for the Broadband Enabled Society (IBES) at the University
of Melbourne has holds out little prospect of a meaningful cost-benefit
analysis of the National Broadband Network being possible.

.
The 105 page paper, 'Valuing Broadband Benefits: a selective report on
issues and options"
http://broadband.unimelb.edu.au/resources/ValuingBroadbandBenefits.pdf
was prepared for IBES by Richard Hayes of the Melbourne Business School
at the University. It looks at some of the methods that could be used to
value the benefits of high speed broadband, with a particular focus on
the NBN and in the context of any social cost benefit analysis of the
NBN.
