| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to analyze how resource allocation within household is determined using the micro data of Japan.
In the New Home Economics which Gary Becker and Jacob Mincer started, it was assumed that a decision-maker, typically the main income generator in each household, controls the behavior of the household such as consumptions and savings. The model is called Unitary Model. In recent years, another model called Collective Model is gaining popularity in academia because the family behavior is increasingly complex. It is not realistic to assume Unitary Model that one decision maker determine every behavior of a household. New model assumes that each member in a household holds different preferences(Chiappori 1988 1992). In this study, taking advantage of this new methodology of Collective Model, we analyze the structure of resource allocation within households in order to understand changing dynamics in Japan which married women began to have their own source of income.
