Individual Rather Than Household Euler Equations: Identification and Estimation of Individual Preferences Using Household Data∗

In this paper it is shown that the intratemporal and intertemporal preferences of each decision maker in the household can be identified even if individual consumption is not observed.

This paper is one of the first attempts to...
