Abstract:
The object of the present paper is to study the distribution of personal
expenditure in Ireland over a number of commodity groups, to analyse
the changes that have recently taken place, and to consider the implications
for the future. In particular, an attempt is made to assess the
effect of income and price changes, though it will be seen that very firm
conclusions cannot be drawn, and the results obtained will be m the
nature of general tendencies rather than strict laws. A forecast of the
future pattern of expenditure will be made, but it will depend to a good
deal on assumptions and judgment.
