Abstract: | The authors develop an analysis, fitting different functional forms to the relationship between size and the ratio of administration costs to total expenditures.The authors show that an inverse function provides a simple, plausible and adequate representation of this relationship. They apply the estimated inverse function to derive a size-adjusted benchmark for the comparison of ACE ratios between charities. |
