Abstract:Se elaboró un modelo teórico con supuestos de preferencias endógenas al hogar, contextual y socialmente dependientes, a fin de analizar los principales factores determinantes de la probabilidad de que un hogar gastara en alimentos y bebidas fuera del hogar en México, durante 1992 y 2008. Las variables explicativas de dicha probabilidad fueron las relacionadas con el hogar en su conjunto -decil de ingreso-, con el jefe del hogar -sexo, edad y nivel de estudios formales-, con el resto de los miembros del hogar -… Show more
“…In keeping with the findings of Llamas Huitrón et al [25], the results of the first stage in our analysis indicate that the presence of family members 65 years of age and older inhibit the participation in FAFH expenditure. Although this effect was already present in the 1992 and 2008 surveys, this age group was deemed the most prone to develop severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptoms, therefore, this might be one of the factors behind the sharp fall in the participation observed in 2020.…”

“…The variables used in the first stage of the analysis are like those in the model for the probability of FAFH expenditure in Mexico proposed by Llamas Huitrón et al [25]. The Working-Lesser Engel curve was estimated on the same variables from the first step, plus the IMR, minus those dropped out by stepwise regression.…”

“…FAH accounted for 26.40 %, whereas FAFH for 2.76 % (of which actual monetary expenditure on goods and services for the household, or G1, accounting for 2.71 %). By comparison, Hispanic households in the United States (about half of them of Mexican origin) spent 29.4 % of their income on total food; 25.8 % on FAH, and 3.6 % on FAFH [25].…”

“…Following the notion that scholarships are a source of income that may increase the probability of FAFH expenditure for households in Mexico [25], we added the variable scholarship which indicates whether the household received income of this kind from government or other institutions, equal to 1 if affirmative, 0 otherwise. In the same fashion, we added the dummy variable remittances to indicate whether the household receives income from abroad (usually family members living in the United States), equal to 1 if affirmative, 0 otherwise.…”

“…Studies on FAFH expenditure in Mexico include the use of a binomial logit to analyze the determinants of the probability for households to participate in this market, using data from 1992 and 2008 [25]; and an analysis of the changes in its budget share and frequency in the period 1984-2014 [26]. Both instances have in common the use of the data provided by the national survey Encuesta Nacional de Ingresos y Gastos de los Hogares (ENIGH).…”

The propagation of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) reshaped the relationship between income and food-away-from-home (FAFH) expenditure in Mexico during 2020. Although the number of households participating in this market fell across income deciles and regions due to the pandemic, the impact on their budget shares is not uniform. Using data from the Encuesta Nacional de Ingresos y Gastos de los Hogares (ENIGH) 2020, we estimated an Engel curve of the Working-Lesser functional form for FAFH. Among the independent variables are the number of family members 65 years of age and older, and dummies to indicate whether the household experienced food insecurity or received remittances. The estimation was carried out following the Heckman two-step method, suitable for censored-response data. The results suggest that the budget share for FAFH drops as income increases. The number of older adults and food insecurity discourage the decision to participate in FAFH expenditure and increase its budget share, whereas remittances encourage participation and reduce its budget share. The corrected conditional elasticity is 0.4609; the sign and the magnitude indicate that FAFH is a necessity good.

In developing countries, the public education system seeks to provide with equity criteria the educational resources demanded by the citizens of the nation. It is common that the demand for these resources is positively biased by the level of household income, since the permanence in the education system is positively correlated with the level of household income.In this research, the redistributive effect of formal education spending is estimated from the net subsidy to each decile of income of households in Mexico 2004 and 2014. For this, it was necessary to estimate the taxes paid for each decile of household, as well as the subsidy to the education they received.The methodology used was the incidence-benefit. This analysis includes the effect of the tax burden of households versus subsidies and public expenditures on schooling that they receive from the State. The National Income and Expenditure Survey of Households (ENIGH) was taken as the main source of information. Since the survey presents the net income of households, the reconstruction of gross income was necessary. For this, an inference method was proposed based on an algorithm constructed in FORTRAN language.In addition, an innovative classification of households based on their tax contribution was considered. The households were classified as income taxpayers (ISR), non-taxpayers and the entire population.With this classification in mind, the net benefit for each household decile was determined and, in addition, it is concluded that the State affects this distribution in a regressive way, mainly in the contributing households. However, in 2014 a progressive effect was found in relation to transfers in basic education of households that did not contribute to income tax.
