Abstract

In Russia, means testing is used to identify low-income households and measure poverty headcount as well as to establish the eligibility of the applicants to targeted social assistance. The current means-testing formula, however, is restricted to comparing the per capita income with the cost of the so-called minimum consumer basket or the standard subsistence income. The authors propose an improved means-testing formula which is claimed to measure the wealth and consumption needs of a household more accurately and more equitably, as it includes a revised equivalence scale and а filter for the possession of certain valuable assets.
