摘要
城市和县乡村地区不同收入/支出组的家庭,其义务教育阶段的静态或动态收入弹性均小于1,这一缺乏弹性的表现可能说明义务教育属于"必需品",是无法替代或者替代品较少的"正常商品"。动态收入弹性的整体变化趋势则是随家庭年人均收入的增加而减少,随教育价格的增加而增加。至于价格弹性方面,静态价格弹性无论城乡均为正数且大于1,而动态价格弹性均为正数,不过受不同家庭收入、教育价格及教育阶段的影响,发生了或富有弹性或缺乏弹性的变化。静态或动态价格弹性均为正数,表明教育需求者对教育价格变动的反应为同方向变动,意味着教育商品不符合需求法则,教育的价格提高并没有使人们的教育需求降低反而使其升高。结合相关研究,考虑是教育的质量效应超过了其价格效应。
Both the static and dynamic income elasticity are less than one, for household expenditures during elementary education, regardless of different income/expenditure levels of families nationwide or.city or rural areas. The inelasticity indicates that elementary schooling belongs to necessities, or normal goods with no or very few substitutes. The dynamic income elasticity shows the expenditure decreases with the increase of household annual income per capita, while it increases with the growth of price of education. The static price elasticity is greater than one for urban and rural areas. The dynamic price elasticity shows elastic Or inelastic change as a result of different household income level, educational price or grades in school. Furthermore, both static and dynamic price elasticity are positive, meaning those with educational demand react at the same direction as the change of educational price, put another way, education as a commodity is inconsistent with the law of demand; the demand for education will increase with the increase of educational price. The author concludes the quality effect of education overrides the price effect of education.
