中国农村居民消费收入弹性区际比较研究:1993-2009

Interregional Comparison and Analysis of Consumption Income Elasticity in Rural China:1993-2009

根据改进的线性支出(ELES)模型,测算并分析比较了1993-2009年期间东、中、西部农村居民的消费收入弹性。研究结果表明,东、中、西部农村居民整体消费收入弹性在研究期间均表现出明显的阶段性特征,部分单项消费品的消费收入弹性与地区经济发达程度还呈现出一定程度的相关性。近年来,东、中、西部农村居民整体消费收入弹性差距呈缩小趋势,各地区农村居民消费热点正逐渐趋同。
