- Title
Life Cycle Cost: A New Form of Consumer Information.
- Authors
Hutton, B. Bruce; Wilkie, William L.

This paper introduces an intuitively appealing option for consumer policy on the energy crisis. Results of a consumer experiment indicate that life cycle cost can be communicated, and could produce energy-efficient purchases yielding savings of over four billion dollars per year by 1985.
