This study investigates urban household consumption patterns for clothing items in different income cohorts through the analysis of an Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) model. Korea quarterly time-series statistics data for urban household expenditures from 1990 to 2013 analyzed household demand. The price and total consumption expenditure elasticities of 4 clothing items (outer wear, shoes, clothing related services and other miscellaneous clothing) for 7 income cohorts were estimated to investigate the clothing consumption patterns of different income cohorts. The study results show that the different household income cohorts have different consumption patterns for clothing items. The elastic demand of total consumption expenditures in the lowest household income cohort suggests that they consume clothing items as luxuries while other households mostly consume them as necessities. The price elasticity for all household income cohorts and clothing items (except the highest household income cohort and outer wear) was found to be elastic. The highest household income cohort had an inelastic price demand for all clothing items that implied a less sensitive clothing consumption change for the clothing price change than other households.

This study was undertaken to test to fit forms of the Engel curves to data. The comparisons were confined to the linear, semi-logarithmic and double-logarithmic forms. Data from the 1970-1987 Urban Household Economy Survey were used to estimate the Engel curves. The twelve categories of consumption expenditure were considered for investigation. Parameters of the Engel curves were derived from OLS and TSLS. In this paper the size of the family was used as the deflater. The results could be summarized as follows: 1. Comparing with the R2 of three foms, it could be concluded that, the linear form generally gave a better fit to data than the other forms did. Only for housing and clothing and foot wear, did the semi-logarithmic form give a better fit. Only for meals outside the home, fuel, light and water charges, and miscellaneous, did the double-logarithmic form give a better fit. 2. Comping with the income elasticities based on the alternative forms, it could be concluded that the differences between the estimates were since each form made different assumption as to the way in which elasticity varied. In general, the semi-logarithmic form gave the highest estimate and double-logarithmic form did the lowest estimate. The difference between semi-logarithmic and the other forms were greater than the those of linear and double-logarithmic form. 3. It was found that the income elasticity varied with the difinition of income used as an explanatory variable in Engel curves.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of household income drops on household economic status during economic crisis periods. Using the data taken from Korean Household Panel Study for 1996 and 1998, it was investigated how household income change affected household income, expenditure, and assets/debt. The economic status change of the income-decreased group was compared with that of the income-increased group. The major findings were as follows: Average income of the total sample was 1,905 thousand won in 1996, while 1,419 thousand won in 1998. The household of which income was decreased during the period was 65.1% of total sample. Average income of the group was reduced from 2,263 thousand won to 1,239 thousand won. Among income sources, the amount of income from real asset was found to be the highest decreasing rate, and the amounts of both business and employed-work income were reduced almost up to an half of those in two years ago. The amounts for all expenditure categories were also decreased with decreasing household income. Especially the expenditures for food away from home, leisure, durable, recreation, and vehicle-related expense were found to have the highest income elasticity. The households with decreased income were found to reduce household expenditures by 377 thousand won per month, which was 70.9% of that in 1996. Decreases in household income resulted in decreases in net wealth by 10,170 thousand won. With decreases in household income, the amounts of total insurance and private savings such as gye were decreased, and so were the amounts of real assets and monetary assets.

Recently, as information and communication technology is swiftly developed, consumers feel more convenient in making use of as well as access to the banking service. This change must affect consumer's benefit, however, there are rare previous studies and methods for measuring it. Thus, we utilize hedonic price technique to estimate consumer's benefit of electronic banking information. The results indicate that the price elasticity of consumer's communication service expenditure regarding the use of electronic banking information is about 0.057%. That is, users have willingness to pay 57 Won more than current communication fee for acquiring the additional electronic banking information.

This study compared one-child households' economic structures between those who determined not to have more children and those who have a birth plan. This study examined the demographic characteristics and economic variables such as income, consumption expenditures, assets. debt, and a subjective evaluation of future economic status. Especially, it compared the effects of socioeconomic variables on expenditures on a child between low-fertility and birth-planned households. From a questionnaire completed by a husband or wife of one-child households, 154 low-fertility households and 201 birth-planned households were obtained. A t-test, chi-square test, multiple regression analysis and a dummy variable interaction technique were used. The findings of this study are as follows: First, low-fertility households were older, had higher income, and had more educated, employed wives. Their marital duration was longer, and their child was older than those of birth-planned households. Second, low-fertility households had higher consumption expenditures than did birth-planned households. Especially, expenditures of apparel and shoes, health care, education, and entertainment were significantly higher for low-fertility households. Also, low-fertility households spent more than did birth-planned households on a child. However, low-fertility households had significantly more debt than did their counterparts, and their expectation level of future economic status were lower than that of birth-planned households. Third, the effects of socioeconomic variables on expenditures on a child were different between low-fertility and birth-planned households. Age, education level, husband's occupation, wife's employment status, income, net asset, and subjective evaluation of future economic status showed significant differences. Income elasticity of expenditure on a child was significantly higher for low-fertility households than their counterparts.

우리나라의 주택용 전력요금체계는 전력 사용량이 증가함에 따라 가격이 상승하는 구간별 가격체계의 특징을 보이고 있다. 우리나라의 현행 요금체계는 선진국의 경우보다 과도한 누진체계를 갖고 있어, 누진제 완화에 대한 논의가 이어져오고 있다. 기존 국내의 주택용 전력수요함수 추정에 대한 연구는 구간별 가격체계 하에서 주택용 전력수요함수를 추정함에 있어 소비자의 예산제약선이 선형이 아닌 굴절되는 형태를 갖게 된다는 점, 구간별 가격체계 하에서 소비자가 인식하는 가격이 과연 경제학 이론대로 한계가격인가에 관한 점, 가격변수의 내생성에 대한 문제 등을 충분히 고려하고 있지 않은 경우가 많다. 이에 본 연구는 주택용 전력수요함수를 올바르게 추정하여 그 결과를 바탕으로 누진제 완화에 대한 시나리오 분석을 수행하고자 한다.

This research intends to find out the impact of housing wealth of home-owning pre-retirees and older adults consisting of young-old, middle-old and old-old groups on their household consumption. In doing so, this research analyzes 2,350 home-owning households by utilizing the 17th Korean Labour and Income Panel Study (KLIPS). The results show that housing wealth has a statistically significant effect on non-durable consumption of the pre-retirees, and young-old and middle-old groups of older adults, and housing wealth has a much stronger effect on household expenditure than does financial wealth or real estate. It's found that the consumption elasticity is particularly greater for female-headed households living in SMA, residing in apartments, holding a lower debt-to-asset ratio and being a pensioner. The empirical findings imply that the old-old group of older adults is unlikely to actively tap into their housing windfalls since housing asset becomes the last to dispose in the course of an individual's life. As housing wealth effects are especially strong when liquidity constraints faced by older adults are removed, it's of significance to substantially reduce household debt before retirement in order to constantly maintain an adequate level of household consumption or to promptly prepare for future contingencies.
