56 анализ благосостояния
Анализом благосостояния называется нормативная часть потребительской теории. В анализе благосостояния оцениваются воздействия изменений в окружающей среде потребителя на его благополучие. Существенное значение для анализа благосостояния имеет основанный на предпочтениях подход к потребительскому спросу. Без него мы не располагали бы средствами оценки уровня благополучия потребителя. — The normative side of consumer theory is called welfare analysis. Welfare analysis concerns itself with the evaluation of the effects of changes in the consumer's environment on his well-being. The preference-based approach to consumer demand is of critical importance for welfare analysis. Without it, we could have no means of evaluating the consumer's level of well-being.
анализ благосостояния в модели частичного равновесия — welfare analysis in partial equilibrium model
Нередко интересно измерить изменение уровня общественного благосостояния, которое порождается изменением рыночных условий, например улучшением технологии, новой налоговой политикой правительства или устранением некоторого рыночного несовершенства. Проведение такого анализа благосостояния является особенно простым в модели частичного равновесия. Этот факт объясняет в значительной мере популярность данной модели. — It is often of interest to measure the change in the level of social welfare that would be generated by a change in market conditions, such as an improvement in technology, a new government tax policy, or the elimination of some market imperfection. In the partial equilibrium model, it is particularly simple to carry out this welfare analysis. This fact accounts to a large extent for the popularity of the model.
В некоторых обстоятельствах мы не можем получить функцию расходов потребителя, так как обладаем лишь ограниченной информацией о его функции спроса по Вальрасу. — In some circumstances, we may not be able to derive the consumer's expenditure function because we may have only limited information about his Walrasian demand function.
