Fernandez, Raquel; Rogerson, Richard

Journal of Education Finance, v27 n1 p567-84 Sum 2001

Employs time-series evidence for a U.S. panel data set (covering 1979-90) to determine how long-run changes in certain factors (changes in income, students, and demographics) affect resources devoted to K-12 education. The two most important determinants of spending per student are personal income and number of students. (Contains 24 references.) (MLH)
