This work focuses on the development of house price indices for Nigeria, and the estimates of the Nigerian Residential Property Price Indices on housing characteristics are presented. Four main methods of index construction were considered, these are hedonic regression, repeat-sales,...

Food price is a main driver of inflation that erodes the purchasing power of households. The study examined demand response to changes in price of rice during food price inflation in Nigeria using sampled households from Oyo State. A multi-stage sampling procedure was used to select 174...

Purpose - This research aims to analyse the variables related to the purchase intention of COVID-19 rapid tests in Monterrey, Mexico's metropolitan area. Design/methodology/approach - The chosen method was probit regression. The results show that purchase intention depends on the consumer's...

This paper examines the relationship between family stressors and subsequent financial behavior of young individuals in Croatia. Previous research indicates that family stressors are associated with increased levels of financial stress, resulting in impulsive purchases, risky financial behavior,...

The prosumer concept has become increasingly relevant in the current economy, necessitating the development of resilient and adaptive business models. Given the lack of a systematic framework for evaluating prosumers, the present study aimed to develop a framework of reference for assessing the...

US consumers currently eat less fruits and vegetables (FV) than recommended by dietary guidelines. Inadequate FV consumption exists alongside rapid growth in demand for organic FV. Since the viable production area of FV is finite, organic and conventional FV are linked in production while...

The aim of this paper is to explore several features concerning the generalized marginal rate of substitution (GMRS)when the consumers utility maximization problem with several constraints is formulated as a quasi-concave programming problem. We show that a point satisfying the first order...

In the present paper an analysis of the neo-classical optimization model with linear constraints is proposed. By introducing the dual problem it is shown that the solution to the maximization problem is also a solution to the minimization problem. The purely theoretical model proposes a...

We employ the theory of rational choice to examine whether observable choices from feasible sets of prospects can be generated by the optimization of some underlying decision criterion under uncertainty. Rather than focusing on a specific theory of choice, our objective is to formulate a general...
