The independence between price indices and living standards in Rwanda

Christophe Muller (Centre for the Study of African Economies, Institute of Economics and Statistics, University of Oxford)

Using data from several seasons in Rwanda, we test the indpendence between Laspeyres local and seasonal price indices and nominal living standards in Rwanda. the results show that the hypothesis of independence cannot generally be rejected in rwanda, although the choice of the adult-equivalence scale can be influential in some seasons.
