Financial management aspects of government research and development programs in an electronics company

Thesis (M.B.A.)--Boston University / The method of determination and expenditure of the Department
of Defense research and development budget with all its attendant
military, economic, and political considerations is obviously a topic
far beyond the limitations of a paper of this type and no attempt will be
made by the author to discuss this subject. In an effort to isolate for
examination, however, one very pertinent aspect of this broad current
issue, the thesis does concern itself with the problem of determining,
contracting, providing and utilizing effectively the funds required to
conduct Government research and development contracts with private
industrial and institutional organizations. Since, in the aggregate,
more than three -fourths of all military research and development
requirements are fulfilled through these sources, it is hoped that, by considering these problems as they relate primarily to the individual
contractor and secondarily to the Federal Government, certain conclusions
may be reached regarding financial management principles and
procedures which might eliminate difficulties in the field of research
and development.
