The analysis is all done at micro level. It is desirable and, even necessary, if we want to know how demographic characteristics affect the behaviour of households and how taxes affect the welfare effects (progressive, regressive or neutral) of increase in VAT depend on good categories and type of households under consideration. %K Economía Aplicada %K Escasa frecuencia de compra %K Estimación de las variables instrumentales %K Impuestos indirectos %K Bienestar individual %K Infrequency of purchase %K Instrumental variable estimation %K Indirect taxes %K Individual welfare %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
