INEQUALITY AND CONSUMPTION Motivation for Measurement
“Inequality, the Great Recession, and Slow Recovery” Forthcoming in the Cambridge Journal of Economics Working paper available at SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2205524

Investigate relationship between income inequality and Great Recession
The Original Goal
![Page 8: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Investigate relationship between income inequality and Great Recession
The Original Goal
• Rich have lower propensity to consume
– (Maki and Palumbo 2001)
• Increasing share of income flowing toward rich
– (Piketty and Saez, 2003; CBO, 2013; Johnson and Smeeding, 2014)
• Downward pressure on aggregate consumption ?

Find a micro data set with income and consumption expenditure
Initial Plan
![Page 13: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Find a micro data set with income and consumption expenditure
Initial Plan
• SCF: oversamples wealthy, but no consumption data • CPS: annual and large sample, but no consumption
• CE: fails to match aggregate data in level or trend
– Under-reporting especially among higher income households (Sabelhaus, Johnson, Ash, Swanson, Garner, Greenlees, Henderson, 2013)
![Page 14: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Use a mix of aggregate and micro data to generate results at “group” level
Revised Plan
![Page 15: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Revised Plan
• SCF: for distribution of balance sheet accounts
• CPS: for distribution of income
• National accounts: for authoritative time series
Use a mix of aggregate and micro data to generate results at “group” level
![Page 16: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Maki and Palumbo (2001)
• Numbers add up to net worth and saving for the
personal sector published in the FAOTUS
• Distribution matches the SCF in every survey year

M&P for group-level saving numbers and then back out consumption numbers
Revised Plan ii
• Mark Zandi provided us with saving rate information
derived using the M&P approach
• First, we adjusted those FAOTUS saving numbers to match NIPA saving numbers
• Then we allocated NIPA transfers and interest between our groups so we could back out “group” consumption

Non-rich took on debt to maintain consumption, which delayed the effect of rising inequality
The Story
![Page 21: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Non-rich took on debt to maintain consumption, which delayed the effect of rising inequality
The Story
Before Great Recession:
• Debt to income ratio of non-rich grew before GR
• Consumption rate of non-rich stable or rising After Great Recession:
• Consumption of rich only has recovered
• Per capita, real GDP far below trend after Great Recession

MEASURING DEMAND Measurement Exercise
“Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts” Forthcoming in the Review of Income and Wealth Working paper available at SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2211896
![Page 28: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Motivation
Reconcile macro and micro estimates of U.S. household income and expenditures
![Page 29: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Motivation i
• Maki and Palumbo (2001) reliant on consistent concepts – CPS income distribution applied to NIPA disposable personal income – SCF net worth distribution applied to FAOTUS balance sheet
• But there are inconsistencies between micro and macro data – Not just sampling error; important conceptual differences
• Previous efforts to match NIPA and survey income – Katz (2012), Bosworth et al. (2007)
Reconcile macro and micro estimates of U.S. household income and expenditures
![Page 30: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Motivation ii
• Might learn from macro measures adjusted to match micro concepts – PCE vs. what households actually spend
– Different definitions of saving may tell different stories
Reconcile macro and micro estimates of U.S. household income and expenditures
![Page 32: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Objective
• Eliminate imputed value of services in consumption – Example: Imputed rent
• Eliminate spending not controlled by households – Example: Medicare
Measure the flows of purchasing power under the control of the household
![Page 33: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Objective
• Household financial flows the way households actually see these flows
• Concept likely to correspond better with flows households report on surveys
Measure the flows of purchasing power under the control of the household
![Page 34: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Key Identity
• Accounting identity maintained before and after adjustments:
Disposable Household Transfers Financial Income = Consumption + Investment + & Interest + Saving
• Identity holds in NIPA – Household investment not distinguished from financial saving
• Adjustments to consumption or income require balancing change elsewhere
![Page 35: Household Income, Demand, and Saving/media/files/pdfs/hfs/assets/... · 2017. 2. 25. · Household Income, Demand, and Saving: Deriving Macro Data with Micro Data Concepts Barry Cynamon](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070223/6145f7ef8f9ff812541ff77d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Other Important Adjustments
• About 40 separate adjustments
• Remove non profit institutions that serve households
• Free financial services
• Medical care – Employer and government, not households
• Retirement accounting – Exclude contributions by employers and government to defined
benefit plans – Include benefits from DB plans

Future Directions
1. Use the Maki and Palumbo procedure with micro-consistent aggregate income and saving series; see if the results change – Wondering if anybody at the Board would like to team up with us
2. Investigate the business cycle properties of the micro-consistent aggregate consumption series – Would like to generate quarterly-frequency numbers
3. Exploit panel structure of PSID to see if story of rising balance sheet fragility among non-rich followed by discrete fall in consumption during GR holds up at household level – Joint work with Daniel Cooper
