Differences across place and time in household expenditure patterns : implications for the estimation of equivalence scales
Daley, Angela; Garner, Thesia Isedora; Phipps, Shelley A.; … - 2020
Equivalence scales are often used to adjust household income for differences in characteristics that affect needs. For example, a family of two is assumed to need more income than a single person, but not double due to economies of scale in consumption. However, in comparing economic well-being...

The measurement of child costs : a rothbarth-type method consistent with scale economies
Bargain, Olivier; Donni, Olivier - 2009
We propose a new methodology to estimate the share of household income accruing to children (i.e., the cost of children). Following the principle of the Rothbarth approach, the identification of the children's share requires the observation of at least one adult-specific good. However, our...
