Product Description This is the first attempt, using Canadian data and econometric techniques, to study property crime as rational economic behaviour. Supplyofoffences functions for five types of property crime are specified and estimated using provincial data for 19702. Both the probability of apprehension and the probability of conviction are shown to have a substantial negative effect upon most kinds of property crime, with the conviction rate exhibiting the stronger influence. The generally significant inverse relationship between expected sentence length and the crime rate found by other researchers does not appear for the crimes investigated here. The results also indicate that estimating supplyofoffence functions over such aggregate categories as 'property crime' can lead to unjustified generalizations about particular types of crime. About the Author Kenneth Avio is a professor emeritus of the Department of Economics at the University of Victoria.C. Scott Clark is an adjunct research professor in the Department of Economics at Carleton University.
