''A characterization of the composite price variable to approximate a price aggregator function in the Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System'' |
( 2009, Vol. 29 No.3 ) |
|
|
In investigating linear approximations to the Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (QUAIDS), Matsuda (2006) proposed a composite variable to approximate a price aggregator function. This paper provides an axiomatic characterization of this composite price variable. |
