Abstract

This paper is focused on a descriptive analysis of gasoline consumption to identify different consumers' behaviors among Brazilian States. The sensitive analysis of gasoline demand to price variation must consider a larger set of variables. Trough a traditional econometric time series approach, this paper aims at assessing the different reactions to price changes, more specifically, changes in state tax, ICMS, over gasoline. The tax-elasticity calculation allows us to verify the possible use of state public policies, specially concerning environmental and energy issues.
