Richard N. Boisvert and Harry P. Mapp

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1974, vol. 56, issue 3, 578-585

Abstract: Expenditure benefit-burden ratios were developed to analyze the implications for rural and urban taxpayers of several education finance alternatives. Equalizing expenditures through a statewide property tax would transfer net benefits to high income, suburban areas. Low Income rural taxpayers would benefit from greater reliance on the state income tax.
