| Exercise 4.7 |
|
Using the results of ex-4.6, compute the expected non-food
expenditures of those whose level of total expenditures equals the food poverty line estimated in \ref{ex-4.1}.
By adding these expected non-food expenditures to the food poverty line, estimate a third global poverty line. |
|
Answer |
| Share of non food expenditures | = |
Non Food expenditures |
= |
732.19 - 304.67 | = |
0.5838 |
|
Total expenditures |
732.19 |
| Non food expenditures | = |
0.5838*304.67 | = |
177.8981 |
Total poverty line
| Poverty line | = |
Food expenditures + Non food expenditures |
= |
304.68+177.90 | = |
482.5781 |
