Cost Of Wholesale Milk Distribution In Utah Urban Markets, 1972, Frederick William Palmer May 1973

Cost Of Wholesale Milk Distribution In Utah Urban Markets, 1972, Frederick William Palmer

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Significant changes have taken place in the distribution of dairy products during recent years. These changes have been marked by the increased importance of milk distribution through grocery stores, specialized dairy stores, institutions such as schools and military establishments, and the corresponding decline of home delivery. Many small food stores have been replaced by large, self-service supermarkets, most of which are operated by chain store merchandisers wielding increased market power. Specialized milk delivery systems have been developed to meet the needs and demands of supermarkets, such as limited service or dock delivery. Because of differences in costs of servicing various …

Transportation And Public Service Costs For Rural Communities Of Various Sizes, Thomas L. Williams May 1973

Transportation And Public Service Costs For Rural Communities Of Various Sizes, Thomas L. Williams

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Lower real incomes in the agricultural sector compared with other sectors of the economy have led to continued migration of rural people to urban areas. Despite this movement of surplus people from farm areas, incomes in the rural sector have failed to keep pace with those in urban areas. Fewer social amenities and other conveniences have also contributed to rural-urban migration.

This reduction in rural population and the consequent reduction in the economic bases of many rural communities has raised some interesting questions about city and rural government consolidation. What sizes of cities should be encouraged in the rural areas, …


Some Economic Aspects Of Beef Crossbreeding In Utah, William L. Beaty May 1973

Some Economic Aspects Of Beef Crossbreeding In Utah, William L. Beaty

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The purpose of this study was to determine empirically if crossbreeding offers a more profitable alternative to Utah cattlemen than straightbreeding. Ranchers practicing breed crossing were interviewed to determine the relative merits of crossbreeding and straightbreeding in the categories of calf crop, weaning weight, sale price, and minor economic factors under ranch conditions. Crossbred and straightbred sale prices were analyzed utilizing the records of the Smithfield Livestock Auction.

Analysis of rancher interview data indicated that crossbred animals exceeded straightbreds in weaning weight and sale price. Crossbreds were further credited with lowering herd disease levels. No generalizations from comparative calf crop …

Economic (Linear Programming) Model Of The Farming Region Served By The D.M.D.A. Irrigation Company, Delta, Utah, Francisco Zarzalejo

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The main objectives of the study are to create a linear programming model of the study area in order to estimate changes in benefits when water delivery system losses are assumed to be affected by shifting between rotation, demand and continuous flow management systems,

Approximately 7,000 acres are included in the program model and the estimated potential "gains" or benefits from distribution system loss "savings" due to more efficient delivery range from $6,000 to _ $12,000 per season. This result is influenced by the facts that the - loss estimates are hypothetical and the system studied is in an area …


Timber Harvesting And Regional Income Distribution, Archie Allen Dyer May 1973

Timber Harvesting And Regional Income Distribution, Archie Allen Dyer

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Numerous attempts to explain the decision making framework of public agencies with multiple goals have been published in recent years. The central problem of the multiple goal decision process of public agencies is the problem of unvalued benefits stemming from projects which the agency could potentially implement.

Regardless of the complexity of the problem, the fact remains that choices must be made between projects. As a result, several alternative procedures for analyzing the issue have been suggested. These may be subdivided into three more or less different approaches: (1) estimation of value indexes or weights for the arguments of the …


Evaluation Of The Impact Of Federal Participation On The Distribution Of Economic Activity And Population In The State Of Utah, Nureddin A. Taqieddin May 1973

Evaluation Of The Impact Of Federal Participation On The Distribution Of Economic Activity And Population In The State Of Utah, Nureddin A. Taqieddin

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Since World War I, the federal government of the U.S. has played an increasingly important role in social and economic functions of the American society. Whether by direct employment or through indirect payments to private and public parties, federal programs have an unquestionable impact on the distribution of economic activity among various regions of the U.S. This impact varies directly with the relative magnitude of federal participation in total economic activity of any region.

In certain areas, federal employment reflects the greatest portion of total federal activity. Where this is true, the impact of federal employment on the distribution of …


The Supply Of Public School Teachers In The United States: A Study In Human Capital Theory, Andrew W. Bacdayan May 1973

The Supply Of Public School Teachers In The United States: A Study In Human Capital Theory, Andrew W. Bacdayan

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

This study uses the principles of human capital theory to develop and test a theory of a supply of a class of educated manpower services with special reference to school teachers.

In the theory formulation, the determinants of the existing stock of teacher education capital are first identified. These are: (a) the price per man-year of teaching service, WTS, (b) the rate of interest, r, (c) the price of the human capital already embodied in the individual working for a college degree in teacher education, WCS, and (d) private costs of education such as foregone earnings and tuition fees, FERTN. …


The Economic Efficiency Of Inter-Basin Transfers Of Agricultural Water In Utah: A Mathematical Programming Approach, John Keith May 1973

The Economic Efficiency Of Inter-Basin Transfers Of Agricultural Water In Utah: A Mathematical Programming Approach, John Keith

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The economic efficiency of water development in Utah, including transfer systems, has seldom been examined, nor has the costs of public policies which result in deviations from efficient allocations. In order that public officials be better informed about water allocations, the present effort examines the efficient allocation of water in time frames up to 2020 under several alternative assumptions and calculates the cost of alternative policies.

Using mathematical programming techniques, a computer mode l is developed to determine the supply (marginal cost) and demand (value of marginal product) relationships for agricultural water, given depletions for municipal and industrial (M & …


State Expenditures In Utah: An Analysis Of Time-Series Models, William Darrell Lewis May 1973

State Expenditures In Utah: An Analysis Of Time-Series Models, William Darrell Lewis

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The purpose of this paper was to determine the economic, sociopolitical, and other related factors which account for the variation in state expenditures across time. Utah was selected as the test state and data were collected from school records, political rosters, employment statistics, and a variety of federal government documents. Particular emphasis was placed on three areas: the cause-effect relationships between variables, relating the model to a body of economic theory, and demonstrating how the model may be applied in forecasting state expenditure needs.

Supply-and-demand analysis was the underlying economic theory. A simultaneous-equation model consisting of four equations--demand for state …

The Application Of Legal And Business Policies To State Prison Industries, Daniel Pramuk, Gregory Robinson, William Rotzien Apr 1973

The Application Of Legal And Business Policies To State Prison Industries, Daniel Pramuk, Gregory Robinson, William Rotzien

IUSTITIA

The Prison Industries (P.I.) division of the Indiana State Department of Correction presented the challenge of a business function that must be carried out to achieve policy goals established by the legislature. The legal constraints imposed upon P.I. present barriers unique to the regular business community, and yet, analysis of conventional business planning provides a starting point for an analysis of P.l's plan and its implementation, and provides a guide for posing alternative plans. The Pendleton Reformatory was chosen for observation of P.I. in operation and its relation to the prison as an institution.

Interstate Comparison Of Input-Output Coefficients., Massis Galestanzadeh

Economics ETDs

The methods of foretelling, planning for future, range from the mythological to the mathematical and now many are confident that some methods developed by economics are sufficiently established to predict future economic events in the course of economic development. In spite of well known fiascos associated with planning mistakes and economic predictions, the need for forecasts and plans has been increas­ing. One reason for this need is that individual and collective living requires considerable amount of planning over a wide range of activi­ties.

The aim of this study is to examine a well known practice of economic planning, namely, to …

Higher Education Enrollment Projection Model: A Description And Evaluation, David W. Weig Jan 1973

Higher Education Enrollment Projection Model: A Description And Evaluation, David W. Weig

Economics ETDs

With the increasing number of problems impacting higher education today, several efforts have been undertaken at the national, state and institutional levels. All of these reactions to the growing problem situation usually result in increased information requirements. The ability to accurately project student enrollment is a requisite to proper planning, budgeting and management of higher education. The large growth rate of the 1960's has ceased and the current outlook for the 1980's is for slight enrollment declines. This situation makes the 1970's a most sensitive time for projecting enrollments. It is during these transitory times that many procedures and methods …
