The relations between a dynamic programming model of fractional flows in an n-sector system and certain finite-state processes are considered. Under certain conditions, the flow model is ``equivalent'' to an n-state Markov decision process, allowing for simpler computation. Where ``equivalence'' fails, a partial solution to the flow model follows from the solution to an (n\(+1)\)-state semi-Markov decision process.
