Pashardes (1991) and Banks, Blundell and Preston (1994) use parametric methods to estimate lifetime equivalence scales. Their approaches put parametric restrictions on the differences in within-period expenditure needs across household types, the intertemporal allocation of expenditure, and the...

collective consumption model, while accounting for general (possibly non-convex) individual preferences. We establish a … nature of consumption externalities (positive or negative) in the intra-household allocation process is non-testable.

We review a nonparametric "revealed preference" methodology for analyzing collective consumption behavior in practical … applications. The methodology allows for accounting for externalities, public consumption, and the use of assignable quantity … information in the consumption analysis. This provides a framework for empirically assessing welfare-related questions that are …

We present a nonparametric revealed preference methodology for empirically analyzing collective consumption behavior …. First, we introduce an integer programming (IP) methodology for testing data consistency with collective consumption models …

We provide two methods to compute the largest subset of a set of observations that is consistent with the Generalised Axiom of Revealed Preference. The algorithm provided by Houtman and Maks (1985) is not comput ationally feasible for larger data sets, while our methods are not limited in that...
