Stone-Geary meets CES:An extended linear expenditure system

Author

  • Ferran Sancho

Abstract

We reformulate the Stone-Geary utility function to incorporate non-unitary elasticities of substitution. We show that this extended linear expenditure system eliminates some of the restrictions implied by the Stone-Geary function. In particular, and most significantly, the proportions of expenditure over supernumerary income become price responsive under the extended demand system and their price derivatives behave coherently with the degree of substitution.
