Hardship Withdrawals Among Households with Disabilities
Given recent economic and personal challenges, inflation, and periods of unemployment, households with disabilities can become particularly financially challenged, perhaps even to the point of executing hardship withdrawals from their retirement savings. This is an important issue for Americans – particularly for families with disabilities - because typically early withdrawals from retirement accounts are subject to a 10% penalty tax (or 25% pena…
The entrepreneurial orientation of special district governments: A study of public entrepreneurship in local governments in Tennessee
The text complexity of local government annual reports
This study explores the factors that contribute to the text complexity of local government communication and whether text complexity varies with governments’ financial performance. We first identify factors associated with text complexity, including the local government’s size, external monitoring, organisational complexity, and financial complexity. We then explore if text complexity varies with the financial performance of local governments. We…
Predicting fiscal distress in special district governments
This paper uses survival analysis to investigate fiscal distress in special district governments. We hypothesize that fiscal distress is positively correlated with revenue concentration and debt usage, and negatively correlated with organizational slack and entity resources. Our model addresses differences in district functions, financing and legislation. Our regression model predicts the likelihood of fiscal distress and correctly classifies 93.…
A predictive model of fiscal distress in local governments
This paper investigates the financial risk factors associated with fiscal distress in local governments. We hypothesize that fiscal distress is positively correlated with revenue concentration and debt usage, while negatively correlated with administrative costs and entity resources. The regression model results in a prediction of the likelihood of fiscal distress, which correctly classifies up to 91% of the sample as fiscally distressed or not. …
