Notes: Table presents estimates of Net Fiscal Impact for 2015—16. The three predictions presented for each district correspond to scenario B in which charter schools draw proportionately from public and private schools. Column * reports estimates for an elasticity of variable cost adjustment of 0.8, but facilities-related expenses are adjustable with an elasticity of 0.5 instead of fixed.
