This paper analyzes the time allocation of Italian spouses to paid work, childcare and household work. The literature … suggests that Italian husbands contribute the least to unpaid household work, relative to other European countries, while … spouses within each household, allowing for corner solutions and correlations in the unobservables across the system of six …

We consider the collective model of labor supply with marketable domestic production. We first show that, if domestic production is mistakenly ignored, the ?collective? indirect utilities that are retrieved from observed behavior will be unbiased if and only if the profit function is additive....
