Resource Cost Analysis: We Really Need to Know.

Sage, Daniel D.

Special Services in the Schools, v4 n1-2 p63-76 1987

Demands for educational cost accountability and containment call for careful analysis of costs in delivering special services. Discussed are problems in compiling state and local educational expenditures; methods of categorizing costs between regular and special education; and the Resource Cost Model, which utilizes a program as its unit of analysis.
