Development of the Cost of Children with the Household Budget: Some Results,
by Jérôme Wittwer.
The cost of children, such as it is perceived by traditionally estimated equivalence scales, is supposed not to be dependent on the standard of living of households (aside from via the influence of the consumption budget's structure). As this hypothesis results from neither a theoretical demand nor a given fact, this article challenges it by estimating the coefficients of scale that are functions of the household budget. These estimates are made for three demand systems in line with either the Barten approach or the Prais-Houthakker approach. The results obtained will enable an analysis to be made of the pertinence of the method used to estimate the real cost of children. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
