Abstract: Communication is a basic need of human beings. For this reason, in this study, we want to obtain the communication expenditure is necessity or luxury good. So the ultimate goal is to assess the income (expenditure) elasticity and price elasticity of communication and it’s budget share, also comparatively estimate the elasticity of demand in different expenditures in Turkey. Thus these elasticities have to give a conceivable picture of changing consumption of communication by the households in Turkey. After all, the article presents empirical analysis of demand of communication and other kind of expenditures in Turkey, for the period 2002-2009. At the research, ELES method was utilized. According to the results of analysis; throughout the Turkey, communication expenditures budget share is nearly 4%, these expenditures income (expenditure) elasticity is less than 1, price elasticity is – 1.06%. Hence the demand of communication expenditure is acceptable as solid in the case of Turkey.
