Abstract
This report contains a cost analysis of two alternative methods of
centralizing the preparation of school lunches in the Monterey Peninsula
Unified School Distirict. The first alternative proposed that the
school lunch be centrally prepared and packaged prior to delivery to
satellite schools. The second alternative called for centralized preparation
of only the portion of the meal normally served cold (i.e. , bread,
salad, and dessert). Cost streams for building and equipment investment and cost streams
for various operating expenses and savings were estimated. Discounting
techniques v/ere applied to these cost streams to determine the present
worth of the alternative ventures as a function of the planning horizon.
