A study on the control path of financial research resource allocation based on Rahman model

Area of Science:

• Economics
• Science and Technology Policy
• Operations Research

Background:

• Financial resource allocation is crucial for scientific research firms.
• Effective allocation maximizes positive social welfare impact.
• The Rahman model offers a framework for resource distribution.

Purpose of the Study:

• To analyze the Rahman model's application in financial resource allocation for scientific research.
• To investigate how dual productivity influences resource distribution decisions.
• To examine the impact of research savings efficiency and conversion rates on allocation strategies.

Main Methods:

• The study employs the Rahman model to assess resource allocation.
• It analyzes scenarios based on dual productivity, research savings efficiency, and conversion rates.
• The research considers the concept of a 'jump point' in decision-making.

Main Results:

• When dual productivity shows an absolute advantage, resources are allocated to system 1, irrespective of lower total efficiency.
• A relative disadvantage in conversion rate can alter allocation if efficiency and dual productivity are advantageous.
• Resource allocation shifts after a 'jump point' is reached or crossed.

Conclusions:

• The Rahman model provides a theoretical basis for research specialization and resource allocation.
• Findings offer practical guidance for governments and research institutions on financial distribution.
• Understanding system efficiencies and productivity is key to optimizing research investments.
