Budgeting Behavior: If, When, and How Selected School Districts Hide Money

Hulpke, John F.; Watne, Donald A.

Public Administration Review, 36, 6, 667-674, Nov/Dec 76

Analysis of 212 budgets for 24 San Francisco Bay Area school districts shows that these districts underestimate income and to a lesser extent overestimate operating expenses. Whether this is done for legitimate reasons or as a collective bargaining ploy is left for the reader to decide. (Author/JG)
