Review of Income and Wealth, 1998, vol. 44, issue 3, pages 417-36

Abstract: A modified version of the perpetual inventory model is applied to new data on consumers' expenditure in the United Kingdom to establish estimates of that part of personal sector wealth represented by the stock of consumer durables. Current and constant price estimates are provided at an aggregate and disaggregate level for the gross and net stock and for the imputed consumption income over the period 1948-95. The accuracy and consistency of the estimates are evaluated in the context of other approaches. Copyright 1998 by The International Association for Research in Income and Wealth.
