Outline (in English)

The first aim of the course is to understand duality of budget constraint to utility maximizing problem and utility constraint to expenditure minimizing problem for determining multiple commodity demands. By using this duality, expenditure function could be derived at the function from certain utility function. Based on specifying this expenditure function, for 10 expenditure items, 10 expenditure share equations could be specified. (specification on AI demand system). From "Japanese Household Expenditure Survey", by 10 expenditure item and prefectural capital city, expenditures and price indeces could be acquired. The AI demand system estimation is conducted by STATA. Finally, we could estimate own-cross price elasticities on 10-item expenditure demands and expenditure elasticities on demands. Then, on these estimations, we could guess the relationships(substitute or complement) among 10-expenditure item demands.
