Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We use data from the Luxembourg Income Study in order to quantify the economy-wide monetary gains achieved by household-size economies due to within-household sharing of goods by individuals living in multimember households. In most countries out of the twenty countries we examine, we observe a decline in monetary gains achieved by household-size economies over time. This decline is the result of a demographic trend towards smaller-sized household units, rather than a change in the shares of aggregate disposable income earned by household types of different size. -- equivalence scale ; welfare ; demographic change ; Luxembourg Income tudy ; household size economies ; income distribution ; family economics.

Download or read book GDP written by Diane Coyle and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-22 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How GDP came to rule our lives—and why it needs to change Why did the size of the U.S. economy increase by 3 percent on one day in mid-2013—or Ghana's balloon by 60 percent overnight in 2010? Why did the U.K. financial industry show its fastest expansion ever at the end of 2008—just as the world’s financial system went into meltdown? And why was Greece’s chief statistician charged with treason in 2013 for apparently doing nothing more than trying to accurately report the size of his country’s economy? The answers to all these questions lie in the way we define and measure national economies around the world: Gross Domestic Product. This entertaining and informative book tells the story of GDP, making sense of a statistic that appears constantly in the news, business, and politics, and that seems to rule our lives—but that hardly anyone actually understands. Diane Coyle traces the history of this artificial, abstract, complex, but exceedingly important statistic from its eighteenth- and nineteenth-century precursors through its invention in the 1940s and its postwar golden age, and then through the Great Crash up to today. The reader learns why this standard measure of the size of a country’s economy was invented, how it has changed over the decades, and what its strengths and weaknesses are. The book explains why even small changes in GDP can decide elections, influence major political decisions, and determine whether countries can keep borrowing or be thrown into recession. The book ends by making the case that GDP was a good measure for the twentieth century but is increasingly inappropriate for a twenty-first-century economy driven by innovation, services, and intangible goods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Inequality in world income is very high, according to household surveys, more because of differences between mean country incomes than because of inequality within countries. World inequality increased between 1988 and 1993, driven by slower growth in rural per capita incomes in populous Asian countries (Bangladesh, China, and India) than in large, rich OECD countries, and by increasing income differences between urban China on the one hand and rural China and rural India on the other"--Cover.

Book Synopsis Hollowing Out: The Channels of Income Polarization in the United States by : Ali Alichi

This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data show that middle-income households have continued moving down, and less so up, the income distribution in the United States since the 1970s—a phenomenon that is often referred to as the polarization or “hollowing out” of the income distribution. While the level of income polarization is generally lower in the richer states (i.e., those with higher median household income levels), there have been wide variations in the changes in income polarization over time across states. The paper develops two indices to measure income polarization including a novel hollowing-out index. Another important contribution of the paper is to examine the proximate causes of income polarization. The econometric analysis is done at both state and household levels. The results suggest that technology, measured by job routinization, and international trade, measured by job offshoring, can fully explain the non-trend rise in income polarization, with broadly equal contributions. Household characteristics, including age, education, race, and gender have also been important drivers but with a net countervailing effect on income polarization. This is mainly thanks to the rising education level of households, which has led to better incomes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year's poverty figures are anxiously awaited by policymakers, analysts, and the media. Yet questions are increasing about the 30-year-old measure as social and economic conditions change. In Measuring Poverty a distinguished panel provides policymakers with an up-to-date evaluation of: Concepts and procedures for deriving the poverty threshold, including adjustments for different family circumstances. Definitions of family resources. Procedures for annual updates of poverty measures. The volume explores specific issues underlying the poverty measure, analyzes the likely effects of any changes on poverty rates, and discusses the impact on eligibility for public benefits. In supporting its recommendations the panel provides insightful recognition of the political and social dimensions of this key economic indicator. Measuring Poverty will be important to government officials, policy analysts, statisticians, economists, researchers, and others involved in virtually all poverty and social welfare issues.
Book Synopsis Why Is Household Income Falling While GDP Is Rising?. by :
Download or read book Why Is Household Income Falling While GDP Is Rising?. written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some policymakers have marveled at the economy's recent strength, whereas others have criticized the meager fruits of this expansion. Which camp is right? The answer depends on which data are used. After recovering from a recession in 2001, economic output, as measured by gross domestic product (GDP), grew at a rapid pace of 3.5% per year between 2003 and 2005. But household income, whether determined by a mean (average) or median (sample midpoint) measurement, fell from 2000 to 2004 (the most recently available data) in real (inflation-adjusted) terms. Mean income fell from $62,671 per household in 2000 to $60,528 in 2004, and median income fell from $46,058 per household in 2000 to $44,389 in 2004. This report seeks to account for some of the leading causes of the divergence. Household income (measured by the Census) and GDP (measured by the Bureau of Economic Analysis [BEA]) are two different concepts that are only indirectly related, which makes a direct comparison between them difficult. Fortunately, there is a measurement of personal income within the GDP accounts that makes for a more direct comparison with the Census Bureau's measurement of household income. Personal income grew more slowly than GDP from 2001 to 2005 because of the rapid growth in several statistical categories that are included in GDP but not personal income. By category, 41% of the difference can be attributed to the rise in indirect and corporate taxes, 35% to capital depreciation, 32% to undistributed profits, and 17% to statistical discrepancy. Offsetting these categories, net transfer payments grew rapidly, which boosted personal income but not GDP. Once these adjustments are made and personal income is calculated on a household basis, the annual growth rate of personal income per household falls to 0.1% between 2001 and 2004, compared with -0.9% for the Census's mean household income. The BEA's definition of personal income includes non-cash benefits, but the Census's definition does not. Non-cash benefits have risen rapidly over the past few years and can explain most of the remaining difference between the two figures. Although personal income per household rose slightly during this period, when non-cash benefits are removed, it fell at almost the same rate that household income fell. The recent rise in personal income has not been uniform across income categories. Wages and capital income have fallen in recent years. The decline in the latter is likely due to falling interest rates. On the other hand, non-cash benefits and transfer payments have risen rapidly. Due to the aging of the population and rising medical costs, this trend may continue in the future. This report will be updated as events warrant.
