Abstract

RESUMEN Este trabajo presenta un análisis de las tarifas de abastecimiento de agua en los municipios más representativos de la provincia de Málaga entre 1989-1998, periodo en el que se produce el mayor número de privatizaciones en la gestión del servicio de los entes de la muestra seleccionada. Para realizar el estudio de la evolución de las tarifas seleccionamos tres tipos de familias representativas de un nivel de consumo bajo, medio y alto, y examinamos los efectos económicos más significativos. En el apartado referente a los aspectos redistributivos de las tarifas, mediante un sencillo planteamiento analítico, se estudia la progresividad de las mismas. Finalmente, a partir de las tarifas del año 1998 y añadiendo un cuarto tipo de familia representativa de un nivel de consumo elevado, procedemos a cuantificar y comparar el excedente del consumidor. El trabajo se cierra con unas consideraciones finales. ABSTRACT This work presents an analysis of the rates of supply of water in the most representative municipalities in the province of Málaga between 1989-1998, period in which the biggest number of privatizations takes place in the administration of the service to the entities of the selected sample. In order to carry out the study of the evolution of the rates we selected three types of representative families of a consumption level low, medium and high, and we examined the most significant economic effects. In the section with respect to the redistributional aspects of the rates, by means of a simple analytic position, the progressivity of the different rates is studied. Finally, starting from the rates of the year 1998 and adding a fourth type of representative family of a level of high consumption, we proceed to quantify and to compare the consumers surplus. The work closes with final considerations.
