| Abstract | Using an econometric model of four simultaneous equations for State cross-sectional data and of two equations for city cross-sections, the following determinants were estimated: (1) current spending on education, (2) the ratio of vocational to current educational expenditures, (3) the over-all enrollment rate in public schools, and (4) the percentage of publicly enrolled students in vocational programs. Interrelationships among these variables are significant. Particularly, current spending per student and over-all enrollments interact so that attempts to increase instructional resources available to each pupil are frustrated by changes in enrollments. In addition to feedbacks among these endogenous variables, influences of 26 exogenous variables, including proxies for racial, religious, occupational, and industry mixes were examined. These are notable determinants of spending per student or enrollment rates, as are other variables representing factors that help to establish demand for educational services. Important variables in this latter category are income levels, income distribution, adult educational attainments, and competing claims on public resources. An appreciable impact of State and Federal educational aid is also present. Finally, instructional costs affect educational spending per pupil, but putative effects of higher salaries are diluted possibly by scale economies to districts, factor substitutions, or changes in teacher-student ratios.
