The main objective of this study was to analyze the pattern of nutrient intake in major metropolitan region of Brazil, seeking to identify the nutrient intake adequacy in the Brazilian families, and their evolution over time. The Almost Ideal System (AIDS) model was employed to estimate the demand for nutrients. The data used are from the Household Budget Survey of 1995 and 2003. The results indicated that the nutrient demand of the population has poor sensitivity to changes in prices.

The objective of this paper was to analyze whether there is a long-run relationship between Brazilian automobile exports and the real effective exchange rate in Brazil in the 1990-2005 period. The methodology used was cointegration analysis, in particular, the Johansen procedure. Results showed no cointegration between automobile exports and the real effective exchange rate in the period, even when the sample was split to capture distinct exchange rate regimes. The main conclusion is that Brazilian automobile exports in the period are better explained by other factors, such as firm strategies, institutional factors and sector-specific changes. |
