“…To overcome this problem, different estimation procedures have been proposed and applied in the literature. 18 These procedures have been frequently applied in empirical work on demand systems (e.g., Yen et al, 2002;García-Enríquez and Echevarría, 2016;2018;Savage, 2016). However, in our case, zero expenditures almost vanish after the aggregation of items into broader categories.…”

Using an estimated demand model, we simulate household-level demand responses to the recent Slovak value added tax (VAT) reform and its hypothetical alternatives. We use simulation results, instead of the standard approximate measures, for constructing an improved efficiency indicator of tax reforms as a ratio of welfare and fiscal revenue effects and call it marginal welfare gain (MWG). We also contribute to the literature on optimal structure of indirect taxes and on marginal tax reforms with new evidence of actual and hypothetical reforms that could increase the welfare of households at zero fiscal costs. Regarding the general policy implications of our results, we conclude that using a demand model to rank commodities according to their MWGs can be helpful for designing both efficient and equitable VAT reforms.

“…Théoriquement, il est supposé une relation non linéaire entre le prix et la demande des biens culturels (Irandoust, 2018). Empiriquement, Dewenter et Westermann (2005), Yamamura (2008), Kim (2009), ont trouvé une relation inverse entre la demande des biens culturels et leurs prix sans s'entendre sur la nature de leur demande (García‐Enríquez & Echevarría, 2018; Macmillan & Smith, 2001; Seaman, 2006).…”

“…A l'inverse, Dobson et West (1990) ont plutôt trouvé un effet négatif. García‐Enríquez et Echevarría (2018) montrent que cette divergence sur la vraie valeur de l'élasticité ‐ revenu suggère qu'une grande partie de cette littérature n'a pas de lien formel avec la théorie néoclassique du consommateur. Ainsi il est montré une relation et un effet non linéaire entre le revenu et la consommation des biens culturels (Diniz & Machado, 2011).…”

“…Palma, Palma, et Aguado (2013) ont utilisé un modèle Tobit sur données tronquées pour montrer que la participation au festival de Séville est fortement associée aux variables reflétant la connaissance, les liens institutionnels et les expériences passées et que le revenu et l'éducation n'y exercent aucun effet statistiquement significatif. García‐Enríquez et Echevarría (2018) ont montré que les biens culturels sont plutôt des biens de luxe.…”

“…Nous partons de l'hypothèse que le marché des biens culturels n'est pas parfait (Hoog & Hoog, 1995) et donc la fonction de demande néoclassique est inappropriée pour estimer les déterminants de la demande des biens culturels (García‐Enríquez & Echevarría, 2018). Nous estimons un modèle basé sur la théorie du capital humain où la dépense ou la décision de consommation des biens culturels est régressée sur un vecteur de variables socioéconomiques, sociodémographiques, liés au milieu de résidence et à l'éducation.…”

This paper analyses the determinants of consumption decision and household expenditure on cultural goods in Togo, based on survey data from the 2015 QUIBB Basic Well‐being Indicators. The determinants of consumption decision are empirically estimated from a probit model while the determinants of consumption expenditure on cultural goods are estimated from a Tobit model and the CLAD (Censored Lead Absolute Deviation) method. The results show that the decision to consume cultural goods is positively affected by the higher level of education and the place of residence but negatively affected by the size of the household. Likewise, households' consumption expenditure is significantly influenced by income, education level, place of residence, household size, and religion. However, estimation by the CLAD method shows that the magnitude of the effect of these factors differs from one quantile to another. Furthermore, our results highlight a U‐shaped relationship between cultural spending and income. Taking these factors into account can help revive the cultural sector in Togo.
