Abstract

<p>In Japan, the continuous reduction in family size during the post-war period has caused a decline in the efficiency of domestic production in households. The proportion of expenditure on foodstuffs for homemade meals in total food expenses has decreased. The objective of this study is to attract attention to whether the family size effects by age-group have contributed to the decline. To investigate these empirical facts, LA/AIDS was estimated by using the age group of household head data.</p>
