Abstract
The Energy Policy and Conservation Act was signed into law during December 1976 after a year of debate between the Ford Administration and Congress over energy policy. The Act established a compromise 40 month phased decontrol program for domestic crude oil prices. This paper employs macroeconometric simulation techniques to assess the impacts that the decontrol pricing policy will have on energy sector demand and supply conditions and on the general economy through 1978.
