Recruiters, Quotas, and the Number of Enlistments

Abstract

The effects on the number of Navy enlistments of recruiters, their distribution, and their quotas are investigated. Published census data on the population and on the demographic and economic characteristics of Navy Recruiting Districts, and regression analysis, are used to control for differences in enlistment potential across districts. Results for CY 1973 and FY 1975 are compared. Improvements to the quota-setting process are considered. (Author)
