Abstract: The article proposes a demand function to project the quarterly private consumption of the System of National Accounts. The input variables of this function are the CPI/Wage Index ratio and the real GDP. Since all these variables are cointegrated, an error correction model (ECM) is used to represent the demand function and estimate bothe the short and long-term elasticities during the period I-2017 to III-2023. Then a projection strategy for private consumption is proposed based on the previously estimated elasticities, and market expectations about real GDP, CPI and an ad-hoc wage index. At the end of the article, the convenience of representing the demand function through a model of time-varying parameters is briefly discussed.
