Abstract: This paper discusses a model to optimize cash management in school districts. A brief discussion of the cash flow pattern of school districts is followed by an analysis of the constraints faced by the school districts in their investment planning process. A linear programming model used to optimize net interest earnings on investments is developed and discussed. The paper concludes that the use of this cash management technique can result in millions of additional revenue dollars for school districts every year. (Author/LD)
