摘要

高等教育之財務規劃，對於教育成效影響深遠，近年來教育經濟學家紛予研究，希能求其公平合理。此項財務規劃對於低收入家庭而言尤其有顯著效果，因此給予適當補貼實屬必要。
本論文係以教育利潤函數爲架構，基於純粹效率凖尺，經由理論推演導出價格及其他相關公式，希能作爲高等教育學費政策之參考。
依據研究發現，一般情況下高收入家庭需要支付較高的學費同時獲致較多的教育量：如果考量其他因素亦得到同樣結論，此一定價政策有利於低所得群•若是與一般情況比較，兩群定價皆低些且差距拉大，至於教育需求量則提高且差距縮小，此更強調有利低所得群差別取價的政策。

The financial planning for higher education has been considered a profoundly influence to a better education effect. Based on this view-point, recently, many educational economists has conducted themselves in various studies in this field, with a view to presenting a better finding closer to the principle of fairness. These financial planning shows a significant result to low-income families and it is considered necessary to offer them some appropriate substantial financial assistance.
The structure of this paper was based on net profit function of education. Under the efficiency criterion, the researcher got price and other relevant formula by theoretic derivation. The research honestly expects the finding of this study will be adopted as the tuition fee policy for higher education institutes.
The research found that under general case high-income families received more education and paying higher tuition fee, it also got the same conclusion if considered other factors. This price policy would benefit low-income family students. When compared to the result from the situation of general case involved, the price were lower and the differential prices between two groups were bigger. The quantities were bigger and the difference between two groups shown smaller. It is distinctively strengthen the advantages it brings to low-income family students under the policy of price discrimination.
