Abstract

This paper is aimed at evaluating the efficiency of public spending on education in the municipalities of Goiás State. The efficiency of municipal networks in the period 2005-2009 was evaluated by comparing the results obtained in the model of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) with those calculated by the classic method of inverted frontier. The results reveal the level of inefficiency (67.44%) and its causes: a) scale inefficiency (11.63%), b) the impact of the environment (4.01%), c) inefficiency of management (16.92%). This paper also estimates and locate geographically the cost of inefficiency and the municipalities that have achieved more balanced performance.
