The aim of this study is twofold. First, we propose new methods of estimating equivalence scales. We call these methods nonstandard to distinguish them from the standard procedures based on the microeconomic theory of demand systems. Searching for the ‘as simple as possible’ method has been a leitmotiv of this study. Second, we estimate various forms of equivalence scales for 28 European Union (EU) member countries and four non-member European countries from 2004 to 2018.
This study represents the past several years of the author’s research on income distribution and draws heavily upon several of his published and forthcoming articles. The monograph format of this publication enables the presentation of many additional results, which usually cannot be placed in a typical paper due to limited space. It is noteworthy that material from these papers does not appear in precisely the same format as initially published; they have been edited to form a coherent whole.
