Static and dynamic procedures for the investment calculation allow for a rational assessment of calculable investment aspects. They quantify financial investment consequences and solidify these in various key profitability figures of the economic-efficiency calculation as a basis for investment decisions.

The depiction of contracting from the viewpoint of the provider and customer provides a third application for key profitability figures as students are introduced to the topic of contract design for various contracting models between provider and customer.
