An estimation of CPI biases in Argentina 1985-2005, and its implications on real income growth and income distribution

Mostrar todas las versiones(2)

On this paper we estimate the amount of CPI biases for GBA during the period 1985- 2005 by shifts in Engel’s curves estimated on expenditure surveys. The results confirm that the CPI overstates inflation by more than 60%, which implies an income growth of the surveys between 4.3 and 5.7% per year. A...

En el presente trabajo se estima la cuantía del sesgo en el IPC para el GBA durante el período 1985-2005 mediante desplazamientos en las curvas de Engel estimadas en base a encuestas de gasto. Se obtiene que el IPC sobreestima la inflación en más de un 60% lo que implica un crecimiento del ingreso en las encuestas de entre 4.3 y 5.7% anual. Adicionalmente se encuentra que el impacto del sesgo se concentra en los individuos de menores ingresos. La corrección este impacto, altera la evolución de la desigualdad a lo largo del período.
