Primes

• Economies of Scale
  • In public services, scale considerations drive debates about consolidating school districts, hospital systems, and regional utilities: there are real per-capita cost savings at larger scale, traded off against local responsiveness and diseconomies of large bureaucracies — a tradeoff Carlton and Perloff (2014) frame as a standard application of cost-curve analysis to the regulated-industry and public-provision contexts.

    This sourceStandard graduate industrial-organization textbook; develops cost-curve, minimum-efficient-scale, and regulated-industry analysis used in scale-vs-responsiveness tradeoff debates; NOTE: the US 4th edition is dated 2005 (a 2015 'Global Edition' reprint also exists); the '2014' in the citation is incorrect — see citation-fix flag.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
