z-Conditionl Demands
◮ Cj ≡ ξj (x, a, z): household demand function for good j
◮ Axiom 1: There is at least one good j and one observable
distribution factor zk such that ξj (x, a, z) is strictly increasing in zk
◮ by strict monotonicity,
z1 = ζ(x, a, z−1 , C1 )
◮ for i 6= j,
Ci = ξi (x, a, z1 , z−1 , z−1 ) = ξi [x, a, ζ(x, a, z−1 , C 1), z−1 ] = θi (x, a, z−1 , C1 )

Model
◮ demand:
Ci = ξi (x, a, z, ǫi )
◮ z-conditional demand:
Ci = ξi (x, a, z1 , z−1 , ǫi )
= ξi [x, a, ζ(x, a, z−1 , C1 , ǫ1 ), z−1 , ǫi ]
= θi (x, a, z−1 , C1 , ǫ1 , ǫi )

◮ Remark:
◮ consider a collective model in which the household maximized a
weighted sum of individual utilities
◮ suppose that the weight is dependent on income but not on
distribution factor
◮ it is not unitary model in a strict sense but is observationally
equivalent to a unitary model under the current setting

◮ Assignable goods: goods for which we can observe how much each
person consumes
◮ Exclusive goods: goods for which consumed by one person only
◮ an exclusive good is assignable
◮ an assignable good can be regarded as a pair of exclusive goods
◮ with price variation, they are regarded as two exclusive good with the
same price
◮ without price variation, there is no such restriction
