520 $a The general purpose of this study is to ascertain the extent to which selected variables differentiate between food service operations that show a financial gain and those that show a financial loss.
520 $a The study involved a survey of 102 "Group 3" Ohio school districts, as assigned by the Ohio State Department of Education for the 1990-91 school year. The instrument used in the study was a questionnaire developed by the researcher from a comprehensive review of the literature and consultation with experts in the school food service field. The dependent variable was the cost to revenue percentage reported by the districts to the Ohio State Department of Education, Division of School Food Services. The independent variables were factors determined to concern school food service directors/managers. These included menu variety utilized, input from students, conducive facilities, time allotted for lunch, incentives used, scheduling of lunch, public relations, open vs. closed lunch periods, ala carte items, use of disposable products, preparation of homemade items, choices for required food components, "offer vs. serve," catering services, satellite distribution, breakfast programs, and use of government commodities.
520 $a Analysis of responses that yielded frequencies was performed using Chi square to ascertain any association between the dependent variable and each of the independent variables. Multivariate analysis of variance was used to analyze the responses to questions resulting in continuous data.
520 $a "Choices" for the required food items was the sole variable found to have a significant (and negative) association with financial success. Results of the study did not support 16 of the 17 variables as being significant indicators of financial success for the school districts.
520 $a The study elicited a variety of information about what the school districts are doing, which in turn provided suggestions for improvement. However, food service directors/managers should use discretion in implementing any of the factors examined. Careful consideration should be given to the configuration of the particular district before spending money in terms of direct cash outlay, labor and time costs, or waste losses. Expenditures for implementation of any combination of factors was not directly supported by the data; therefore, introducing additional factors may create financial losses for the districts.
