 GAO-04-847, Indian Economic Development: Relationship to EDA Grants and Self-determination Contracting Is Mixed   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Based on these analyses, we categorized the 121 tribes with annual per capita BIA contract amounts exceeding $580 and total annual BIA contracting amounts greater than $300,000 as high- contracting tribes, and we, therefore, categorized the remaining 55 tribes whose per capita or total contracting amounts were less than these thresholds as low-contracting tribes.
We then found the total income of the tribe by multiplying the per capita income of the tribe by the total number of Native Americans living in the tribal area.[Footnote 17] Dividing the total federal funding for each tribe by this tribal income amount resulted in a grants-to-income ratio.
By comparing the tribes ranked by income with the amounts tribes received from EDA, we found that tribes in the top 25 percent of per capita income had received 28 percent of the grants EDA awarded to tribes in the lower 48 states between 1993 and 2002.
