2/5

How did the development of petroleum-based products affect economic changes during the early 1900s?

Question 1

Oil and gas discoveries in the Southwest sparked a new major industry and supported the automobile boom.

A nationwide search for sources of oil and gas resulted in vast oil discoveries in all regions of the United States.

The discovery of petroleum in the United States encouraged northern factory owners to build an automobile industry.

Impact of Ford's Model T and Assembly Line Techniques:

Significant enhancement in productivity through assembly line techniques
Manufacturing time for a Model T reduced from 12 hours to 90 minutes in two years Decrease in the cost of a Model T: $350 in 1916 to $290 in 1927 (equivalent to just over $5,000 when adjusted for inflation)
Limited variations in the Model T: slow, dull, and available only in black
First affordable car for ordinary people

Rise in Automobile Ownership and Economic Growth:

1919: 10 percent of American families owned an automobile
1927: 56 percent of American families owned an automobile
Economic growth in industries related to car manufacture and use

Steel, glass, rubber, asphalt, wood, petroleum, insurance, and road-construction industries all benefited
One seventh of all steel output was used in automobile production

Influence on Energy and Petroleum Industry:
Nationwide search for petroleum deposits due to the need for gasoline
Oil discoveries in California, Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma
Booming petroleum-based industries Increased employment and tax revenues

Impact on American Way of Life:

Rapid expansion of road infrastructure and transportation networks
Shift towards a more mobile and interconnected society
Increased accessibility and convenience for the general public

1/5

Question 1

How did the free enterprise system most contribute to transportation improvements in the United States in the 1910s and 1920s?

Widespread automobile ownership encouraged the growth of service stations, motels, roads, and suburban housing.

Desire for profit spurred the development of innovative products and processes in car production, road building, and travelers’ services.

Economic Growth

2/5

Henry Ford

Much of the economic growth during this period was due to the automobile industry. Carmaker Henry Ford introduced a series of technological and management innovations to his fledgling automobile business. This idea of mass production allows people from all kinds of backgrounds to buy cars. The improvement of efficiency combined with moving assembly lines reduces the time it takes to manufacture. The car also caused economic growth in other areas such as wood and road-construction.
