| Researchers believe that rice in developed countries such as Japan became an inferior good a few decades ago. This study employs the flexible complete demand system for the recent cross-sectional data in Japan. Our results clearly show that rice in Japan is a normal good contrary to the preceding studies. The objective of this research is to analyze the food consumption patterns and to conduct econometric analysis of food demand structure. We use the monthly basis cross-sectional household data, Annual Report on the Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES) in 1997. Food items are non-glutinous rice, bread, noodle, fresh fish, and shellfish, fresh meat, milk, eggs, fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, fats and oil, and food away from home. We apply... |

The own- and cross-price elasticities were, in general, similar to those found in past studies. The dummy variable estimates to control for city size, seasonality and other city specific trends appear reasonable, suggesting this modeling approach, and perhaps other variants, is useful for analyzing combined city data over time. The promotional estimates of the study support previous findings that featuring and displays significantly increase demand. Features and displays together have the largest impact. Price discounts have the smaller impacts but their magnitudes are larger than found in previous studies. Finally, although both... |
