Financial and Staffing Ratio Analysis: Predicting Fiscal Distress in School Districts.
Lee, Robert Alan
Journal of Education Finance, v9 n2 p256-63 Fall 1983
From analysis of data from 579 school districts it is concluded that financial ratios have the ability to forecast fiscal distress a year in advance. Liquidity ratios and salary and fringe benefit ratios were found to be strong forecasters, while per pupil expenditure data had little predictive value. (MJL)
