Abstract

Az egyes emberek gazdasági teljesítményének végső eredménye fogyasztásukban és az ebből adódó jólétben ölt testet. E közhelyszerű igazság ellenére a magyarországi háztartások fogyasztási szokásairól kevés közgazdasági alapú információ áll rendelkezésre. Tanulmányunk egy mára alapvetővé vált kiadási modell becslésével ezt a hiányt kezdi pótolni. A becslési eredményeken ellenőrizzük a közgazdasági elmélet által megkívánt feltételezések tarthatóságát, majd azt mutatjuk be, hogy miként használható ez az elemzési keret az árváltozások hatásának számszerűsítésére, valamint fogyasztásiegység-skálák számítására. A modell bizonyos megszorításokkal ugyan, de alkalmazható a magyar helyzetre. A kapott eredmények a nemzetközi irodalomban találtakhoz hasonlíthatók. A gyakorlat számára leginkább tanulságos eredményt a jóléti vizsgálat terén kaptuk, a modell révén jelentősen pontosítható az az eredmény, amelyet az árváltozások naiv, a fogyasztói alkalmazkodást figyelmen kívül hagyó becslésével érhetünk el. A fogyasztásiegység-számításokból azt a közvetkeztetést vonhatjuk le, hogy a nemzetközi gyakorlatban szokásos ekvivalenciaskálák alkalmazása Magyarországon a relatív jövedelmi helyzet túlbecsüléséhez vezethet a gyermekes, különösen a többgyermekes családok esetében. Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: D12.
