The focus of the study is however on Slovenia where a Household Budget Survey for 1993 was made available. For Bulgaria tabulated data from annual Household Budjet Surveys for the period 1990-94 were used, while for Romania only secondary data from other sources for the period 1992-94 were available. The consumption patterns for Slovenia and Bulgaria are analyzed using various Engel curve specifications, while Romania the research follows Alexandry's, 1996 study. Income-expenditure elasticities are estimated for different food items in Slovenia, and for different food items as well as for other expenditure groups and services in Bulgaria.
