Demonstration on restrictions and accuracy of an estimator is pivotal since the incomplete will make inaccurate that they cannot be used for need decision making. In this study, demand system’s three primary requirements-adding up, homogeneity, symmetry ‒ are examined. This current research was intended to demonstrate Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (QUAIDS) model estimator. The source dat...

The elasticity of taxable income is vital when predicting the effect taxes. Bunching at kinks/notches has been used to estimate this elasticity. We show that preference distribution unrestricted, bunching a kink or notch not informative about size elasticity, and neither entire income. identifies correctly specified across provides bounds under restrictions on distribution. find wide in an empi...
