heal.abstract	In this paper, we present the economic evaluation of a mature ATM network. We discuss the issues involved and present two examples. Four customer categories are taken into account, namely residential, small business, medium business, and large business customers. Our aim is to introduce a simple meaningful model, which incorporates the most important factors that influence the economic viability of an ATM network, and to present the limits and limitations of the area of economic evaluation. The revenue, cost, and net income (of the network operator) are calculated for two different scenarios, that is with and without residential customers.	en
