Abstract

A study of the feasibility of charging real money for computer time used for academic, as contrasted with administrative, computing is presented. It is concluded that despite the problems of an in-house charging system, change to a real-money system is not justified in a small institution in which simpler financing can be accomplished. (MSE)
