For the estimation of average income and
price elasticities and average consumer welfare loss, a representative in each income quartile in 1992 is constructed using means of all relevant variables.
From the computed share elasticities it is possible to obtain the familiar quantity elasticities, as a simple relationship exists between them.(23) While all the
price elasticities we present in Part A of Table 4 are the familiar quantity elasticities, the household size and total expenditure elasticities are share elasticities.
We find negative energy cross-price elasticities around -0.2 and water

First, our basic interest is in estimating disaggregate
price elasticities of demand, which are unit-independent parameters that indicate the responsiveness of demand to changes in relevant prices.
If the prices of other goods or lottery games are considered in the empirical-demand function, then the sum of all
price elasticities (own price and cross prices) is restricted to be equal to -1.
(1) This is the first attempt in the literature to estimate a simultaneous demand system for the 24 hours and to recover the entire structure of expenditure elasticities and cross
price elasticities for all hours of the day in an organized electricity market, ascertaining whether hourly electricity demands can be considered normal or luxury goods and substitutes or complements.
(7) The gasoline
price elasticities in these estimates are -0.5 and -0.4.
