Una comparación del gasto por tres niveles de ingreso para Colombia bajo una estimación del sistema de ecuaciones de demanda Working y Leser y del Sistema Lineal de Gasto Extendido 2008
A comparison of spending by three levels of income for Colombia under a stimate of a Working and Leser demand ecuations system and Extended Linear Expenditure System 2008
Abstract (en)
One of the main questions of economics is how to address the issue on the measurement of inequality and gap between the poor confronted with the higher income population, different studies oriented to being a complex question and there is a specific theory around this issue. One way of measurement is the calculation of monetary poverty and how the population of an economy is distributed around a poverty line or minimum wage.
The following article presents theoretical considerations of the classical theory of rational choice, underlying two traditional systems of demand equations, to be used as a tool to model the behavior of Colombian households, using information from the survey of quality of life 2008, then to relate the standard of living and socio-economic conditions with the expense or income of the population.
In particular for the Colombian case it shows that 40% of households are poor while another 40% of households only have per-capita income above the poverty line but below the monthly minimum wage; thus the questions about the standard of living of the Colombian population, access to basic homogeneous goods, subsistence consumption, the socio-economic gap and social exclusion arise
Abstract (es)
Una de las preguntas principales de la ciencia económica es la forma de abordar la cuestión sobre la medición de desigualdad y brecha entre la población pobre confrontada a la población de mayores ingresos, diferentes estudios orientan a que siendo una pregunta compleja, existe toda una teoría específica alrededor del tema, una de las formas de la medición es el cálculo de la pobreza monetaria y la forma como la población de una economía se distribuye alrededor de una línea de pobreza o de un salario mínimo.
El siguiente artículo presenta unas consideraciones teóricas de la teoría clásica de elección racional, que fundamentan dos sistemas de ecuaciones de demanda tradicionales y que se usarán como herramienta para modelar el comportamiento de los hogares colombianos, utilizando información de la encuesta de calidad de vida 2008, para luego relacionar el nivel de vida y condiciones socio-económicas con el gasto en grupos de bienes homogéneos agrupados y el ingreso de la población.
En particular para el caso colombiano se encontró que el 40% de los hogares son pobres mientras que otro 40% de los hogares apenas tiene un ingreso per-cápita superior a la línea de pobreza pero inferior a un salario mínimo mensual; de esta manera surgen los cuestionamientos sobre el nivel de vida de la población colombiana, el acceso a bienes básicos, el consumo de subsistencia, la brecha socio-económica y la exclusión social.
