Particularly, we investigate the consequences of a major break in the survey design for inter-temporal comparisons of expenditure categories: a reduction of the surveying period from twelve to three month taking place between the census years 1993 and 1998. We demonstrate that for several commodities a division-by-four of annually-surveyed expenses cannot guarantee inter-temporal comparability of expenditure distributions. We suggest and test the performance of several alternative conversion procedures. Suitability of conversion strategies hinges upon good-specific purchase properties.","19, [20] S.","978-3-941240-16-2","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/19683||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/FUDOCS_document_000000005078","eng","urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000314-2||urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000006-7","http://www.fu-berlin.de/sites/refubium/rechtliches/Nutzungsbedingungen","German Sample Survey of Income and Expenditure||annual vs. trimestrial data","300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::336 Öffentliche Finanzen","Compiling a harmonized database from Germany’s 1978 to 2003","sample surveys of income and expenditure","Buch","open access","Volkswirtschaftslehre:::46a887cb-f472-42ae-a213-041a9fcecf17:::0","Wirtschaftswissenschaft","FUDOCS_derivate_000000000900","FUDOCS_document_000000005078","2010,4 : Economics","Diskussionsbeiträge des Fachbereichs Wirtschaftswissenschaft der Freien Universität Berlin"
