Some Evidence from US Meats AgEcon Clark, J. Stephen; Levedahl, J. William. Price and income elasticities of fat from meats are estimated by decomposing composite demand for meat into the produ ct of total calories, the fraction of calories eat as fat, and a residual measure of quality. This demand-characteristic system provides estimates of the impact of prices and income on the fraction of calories eaten as fat as well as their affect on the total consumption of fat. Empirical estimates of the comp ensated own-price elasticities of meats suggest that a fat tax designed to raise revenues to finance nutritional education efforts may increase the total consumption of fat.

Ano: 2006 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/25710 Price Elasticities of Demand for Food Away From Home (FAFH) AgEcon Levedahl, J. William. Using a procedure by Deaton (1990) and data from a cross-sectional survey by CREST price elasticities of demand for three types of FAFH facilities are computed.

Ano: 2011 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/103243 THE GENERALIZED COMPOSITE COMMODITY THEOREM AND FOOD DEMAND ESTIMATION AgEcon Reed, Albert J.; Levedahl, J. William; Hallahan, Charles B.. This paper reports tests of aggregation over consumer food products and estimates of aggregate food demand elasticities. Evidence that food demand variables follow unit root processes leads us to build on and simplify tests of the Generalized Composite Commodity Theorem found in the literature. We compute food demand elasticities using cointegration applied to a convenient but nonlinear functional form. Estimates are based on consumer reported expenditure data rather than commercial disappearance data. Tipo: Conference Paper or Presentation Palavras-chave: Demand and Price Analysis. Ano: 2004 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/20107 Net Taxpayer Cost of WIC Infant Formula AgEcon Levedahl, J. William; Reed, Albert J.. This paper combines expressions for infant formula retail price flexibilities of the contract brand with respect to the rebate and participant demand presented by Reed and Levedahl (2012)with historical data on rebates and participant demand to calculate how the magnitude of net taxpayer costs has been affected by changes in rebates and participant demand. These results are used to compare the relative impact of these variables on the net cost to taxpayers of WIC infant formula and to evaluate how effective sole-source contracts have been at containing taxpayer costs.

Ano: 2012 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/124073 Commercial Disappearance and Composite Demand for Food with an Application to U.S. Meats AgEcon Reed, Albert J.; Levedahl, J. William; Clark, J. Stephen. When elementary prices move strictly proportionately, aggregation over a group of diverse products is valid, and group demand responses can be decomposed into quality and quantity responses. This study shows that when relative elementary prices and group prices are stochastically independent, a similar decomposition is valid. Empirical results suggest consumers respond to changes in prices and income mostly by altering the quality of meat products. These findings imply that using commercial disappearance as a proxy for food demand can be misleading for policy analysis.

Ano: 2003 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/30719 The Determination of National Retail and Wholesale Prices of Infant Formula AgEcon Levedahl, J. William; Reed, Albert J.. Changes in both retail and wholesale infant formula prices can affect the ability of WIC to supply infant formula to participants. This paper constructs a joint relationship that links national wholesale and retail infant formula prices to economic and policy variables. This joint framework provides a richer interpretation of current issues and questions associated with these markets than frameworks intent on explaining either retail or wholesale prices alone. We show how this framework can be implemented empirically, and demonstrate how it can be used to obtain empirical estimates of retail and wholesale price flexibilities with respect to rebates, and with respect to changes in WIC participation. Both have implications for cost containment.

Ano: 2005 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/19274 CONSISTENT AGGREGATION IN FOOD DEMAND SYSTEMS AgEcon Levedahl, J. William; Reed, Albert J.; Clark, J. Stephen. Two aggregation schemes for food demand systems are tested for consistency with the Generalized Composite Commodity Theorem (GCCT). One scheme is based on the standard CES classification of food expenditures. The second scheme is based on the Food Guide Pyramid. Evidence is found that both schemes are consistent with the GCCT.

Ano: 2002 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/19653 THE EFFECT OF AN ELECTRONIC BENEFIT TRANSFER (EBT) SYSTEM ON FOOD EXPENDITURE OF FOOD STAMP RECIPIENTS: EVIDENCE FROM THE MARYLAND STATEWIDE IMPLEMENTATION AgEcon Levedahl, J. William. Survey data before and after the statewide implementation of an Electronic Benefit Transfer system in Maryland is used to estimate the impact of this system on net food expenditure out of Food Stamp Program (FSP) benefits and income. A reduction in the net food expenditure from FSP benefits relative to income reduces the FSP's ability to target food expenditure.
