Equivalence scales for children

Journal of Public Economics, 1977
Family circumstances, of which the number and age of children are two of the more important manifestations, are taken into account in a number of contexts. For example, the relationship between consumption and household composition is central to the emerging literature on the economics of fertility [Willis (1973) or Leibenstein (1974)J.

Scaling‐equivalent rotating flows

ZAMM - Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics / Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, 2020
AbstractThree outstanding rotating disk flows described by an exact solution of the Navier–Stokes equations are revisited in this paper. The purpose is to find out to what extent the corresponding boundary value problems can be mapped on each other by scaling transformations. The three addressed, and seemingly basically different axisymmetric flows are

Additive Separability and Equivalent Scales

Econometrica, 1986
Recently, \textit{R. A. Pollak} and \textit{T. J. Wales} [ibid. 49, 1533-1551 (1981)] showed that additively separable utility is sufficient to make the (modified) Prais-Houthakker form of adult equivalent scales [see \textit{S. J. Prais} and \textit{H. S. Houthakker}, ''The analysis of family budgets'', Cambridge Univ.

Corrigendum to “Equivalent-expenditure functions and equivalent-dependent equivalence scales”

Journal of Public Economics, 2005
This note is to correct an error in Donaldson and Pendakur (2004) in this Journal. In bEquivalent-expenditure functions and expenditure-dependent equivalence scalesQ ,w e propose equivalence scales which are log-linear in expenditure and show that they are identifiable from behaviour under the maintained assumption of log-linearity.

Clusters and Equivalence Scales

2013
Equivalence scales (S) are difficult to estimate: even apparently solid microeconomic foundations do not necessarily lead to consistent results. We contend that this depends on “style” effects: households with the same economic resources and identical “needs” (e.g.

EQUIVALENCE SCALES AND THE WELFARE OF CHILDREN: A COMMENT ON “IS THERE BIAS IN THE ECONOMIC LITERATURE ON EQUIVALENCE SCALES?”

Review of Income and Wealth, 1999
In a recent issue of this journal, M. Luisa Ferriera, Reuben C. Buse, and Jan‐Paul Chavas argue that the equivalence scales implicit in the official U.S. poverty line and in public welfare programs overcompensate parents for their children, with resulting negative distributional and incentive effects.

On the choice of equivalence scales

Statistical Journal of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, 1992
To compare welfare among households, net household income is a widely used indicator. However, this indicator does not take into account differences in household composition and thus in needs. To adjust for these differences equivalence scales are designed by taking into account the main household characteristics which do affect needs.
